Hypomethylation of <i>CLDN4</i> Gene Promoter Is Associated with Malignant Phenotype in Urinary Bladder Cancer

Hypomethylation of <i>CLDN4</i> Gene Promoter Is Associated with Malignant Phenotype in Urinary Bladder Cancer

The tight junction (TJ) protein claudin-4 (CLDN4) is overexpressed in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BUC) and correlates with cancer progression. However, the mechanism of CLDN4 upregulation and promotion of malignant phenotype is not clear. Here, we analyzed 157 cases of BUC and investigated the hyp...
