Description

Phenomenon of field cancerization or field defect is biological change as premalignancy at non-cancerous region around tumor, which is considered to be an important mechanism of carcinogenesis. We evaluated whether normal appearing mucosa of colorectal cancer patients has aberrant DNA methylation in a genome-wide manner. We compared methylation status in normal colorectal mucosa of healthy persons and colorectal cancer patients using methylated CpG island amplification microarray (MCAM), and extracted candidate genes with difference in methylation levels between healthy persons and colorectal cancer patients. We extracted fifteen genes in which we judged to have difference of methylation using MCAM between four pairs of normal colorectal mucosa of healthy persons and normal appearing mucosa adjacent to colorectal cancer. We performed quantitative methylation analysis with bisulfite pyrosequencing for candidate genes extracted with MCAM for the four pairs of samples. We also estimated the methylation levels of the genes of 50 colorectal biopsy samples using quantitative methods. We did not find any genes that revealed significant difference in methylation levels between adjacent mucosa and healthy normal colon. Aberrant promoter hypermethylation in normal appearing mucosa adjacent to colorectal cancer is not considered to be common.
