   Methylation
   Cancer Name retinoblastoma
   ICD-0-3 C69.2  M9510/3
   Methods qPCR, Western blot
   Sample retinoblastoma tissues, cell lines (Weri-Rb1 and Y79)
   Expression Pattern down-regulated
   Function Description

Hypermethylation of MEG3 promoter was observed more frequently in retinoblastoma tissues and was highly associated with low MEG3 expression and poor survival of retinoblastoma patients.hypermethylation of MEG3 promoter depressed MEG3 expression, promoted proliferation, inhibited apoptosis and increased B-catenin expression of retinoblastoma cells in vitro.promoter silencing by hypermethylation may account for the loss of MEG3 expression and predict poor prognosis.

   Year 2017
   Title Hypermethylation of MEG3 promoter correlates with inactivation of MEG3 and poor prognosis in patients with retinoblastoma.
