Example sentences for: unmethylated

How can you use “unmethylated” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:

  • The primers used for methylated and unmethylated-specific PCR for genes RARB , TIMP3 , CDKN2A , p14 ARF , MGMT , DAPK , CDH1 , GSTP1 , APC promoter 1A, RB1 , MLH1 , TP73 , BRCA1 , FHIT , and HIC1 have been described previously http://pathology2.jhu.edu/pancreas/prim0425.htm#MSP; [ 34 35 36 37 ] . For additional genes, we designed the following gene-specific primers for methylated (MF and MR) and unmethylated (UF and UR) sequences according to Herman et al [ 33 ] :

  • Three of the methylated cell lines (C-4I, SiHa, and ME-180) and one of the three unmethylated cell lines (MS751) showed down regulated expression.

  • Genomic DNA was treated with sodium bisulphite as previously described [ 33 ] . Placental DNA treated in vitro with Sss I methyltransferase (New England Biolabs, Beverly, MA) and similarly treated normal lymphocyte DNA were used as controls for methylated and unmethylated templates, respectively.

  • Promoter methylation has been well recognized as an important epigenetic change in the development of cancer [ 1 ] . Normally, CpG islands in the promoter regions of a number of genes are present in an unmethylated state [ 2 ] . Aberrant methylation of CpG islands in promoters is characteristic of several genes in cancer leading to loss of gene expression.

  • The primers used for amplification of methylated and unmethylated promoters of genes RARB , TIMP3 , CDKN2A , p14 ARF , MGMT , DAPK , CDH1 , GSTP1 , APC promoter 1A, RB1 , MLH1 , TP73 , BRCA1 , FHIT , and HIC1 have been described previously http://pathology2.jhu.edu/pancreas/prim0425.htm#MSP; [ 32 47 48 49 ] . Methylated (MF and MR) and unmethylated (UF and UR) primers for RASSF1A promoter were designed according to Herman et al [ 46 ] and as described earlier [ 50 ] . PCR products were run on 2% agarose gels and visualized after ethidium bromide staining.
