Regulation of UGT1A1 and HNF1 transcription factor gene expression by DNA methylation in colon cancer cells

BACKGROUND: UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) is a pivotal enzyme involved in metabolism of SN-38, the active metabolite of irinotecan commonly used to treat metastatic colorectal cancer. We previously demonstrated aberrant methylation of specific CpG dinucleotides in UGT1A1-negative cells, a...
