Combined Analysis of the Aberrant Epigenetic Alteration of Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma.

Integrated analysis of the aberrant epigenetic alteration in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma indicated that differentially methylated genes could play a vital role in the occurrence of PDAC by bioinformatics analysis. The present work can help clinicians to elaborate on the function of differentially methylated expressed genes and pathways in PDAC. CDO1, GJD2, ID4, NOL4, PAX6, TRIM58, and ZNF382 might act as aberrantly DNA-methylated biomarkers for early screening and therapy of PDAC in the future.
