Distinct Functional Patterns of Gene Promoter Hypomethylation and Hypermethylation in Cancer Genomes

BACKGROUND: Aberrant DNA methylation plays important roles in carcinogenesis. However, the functional significance of genome-wide hypermethylation and hypomethylation of gene promoters in carcinogenesis currently remain unclear. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Based on genome-wide methylation data for five canc...
