pubmed:abstractText |
Previous studies in advanced-stage neuroblastoma (NB) have shown a link between the silencing of caspase-8 and methylation of a regulatory region at the boundary between caspase-8 exon 3 and intron 3. However, a number of recent studies from NB cell lines have shown that the transcriptional regulation of caspase-8 may reside with interferon gamma-sensitive promoters through the action of transcription factors, such as signal transducer and activator of transcription 1 (STAT-1). In this study, the authors tested the hypothesis that there is a correlation between caspase-8 and STAT-1 protein expression levels that may be linked to methylation of the regulatory elements of either of these genes.
