Results of experiments from a specimen from a 68-year-old woman. (a) Semi-quantitative RT-PCR showed downregulation of DCDC2 in the tumor sample compared with corresponding normal tissue. (b) Copy number analysis of chromosome 6 by SNP array in the HCC sample did not show any deletion or amplification on 6p22.1, the DCDC2 locus. (c) MSP showed promoter hypermethylation in the tumor sample alone.
