Cancer&Entry Information
| Cancer Name | embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma |
| ICD-0-3 | NA |
| Methods | qPCR, MSH-PCR etc. |
| Sample | embryonal rhabdomyosarcoma tissues |
| Expression Pattern | differential expression |
| Function Description | We observed that while both embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas (ERMS and ARMS, respectively) show LOI of the DMR at the IGF2-H19 locus, imprinting of the DMR at the DLK1-GTL2 locus varies in association with the histological subtype of RMS. We found that, while ERMS tumors consistently show LOI of the DMR at the DLK1-GTL2 locus, ARMS tumors have erasure of imprinting (EOI) at this locus. These changes in imprinting status of the DLK1-GTL2 locus result in a higher GTL2/DLK1 mRNA ratio in ARMS as compared to ERMS. |

| Title | The paternally imprinted DLK1-GTL2 locus is differentially methylated in embryonal and alveolar rhabdomyosarcomas. |
