1 Hypermethylation of the promoters of the p53-BAX mitochondrial apoptosis genes cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2A (CDKN2A), death-associated protein kinase 1 (DAPK1) and PYD and CARD domain containing (PYCARD) was detected by methylation-specific polymerase chain reaction, with and without DAC treatment.
