Analysis of the Association between CIMP and BRAF(V600E) in Colorectal Cancer by DNA Methylation Profiling

A CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP) is displayed by a distinct subset of colorectal cancers with a high frequency of DNA hypermethylation in a specific group of CpG islands. Recent studies have shown that an activating mutation of BRAF (BRAF(V600E)) is tightly associated with CIMP, raising the...
