microarray, qRT-PCR isogenic normal finite pre-stasis, abnormal finite post-stasis, and immortal human mammary epithelial cells (HMECs) from 4 individuals down-regulated epigenetics The functional importance of DNA hypermethylation in MORT gene silencing is supported by the ability of 5-aza-2'-deoxycytidine to reactivate MORT expression. Analysis of TCGA data revealed deregulation of MORT expression due to DNA hypermethylation in 15 out of the 17 most common human cancers. 26646903
