Abstract:
Hie morbidity and mortality of bladder cancer are both the highest among urinary cancers in China. As a critical component of epigenetics, DNA abnormal methylation plays an important role during the occurrence and progression of bladder cancer. Recently, researchers focusing on the DNA methylation in bladder cancer have done much on it The results are of great clinical significance for screening,diagnosis and therapy of bladder cancer.
