Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
The study aimed to investigate the role of promoter methylation of MGMT, NUPR1, NDRG2, and GLI1 genes in glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) patients. Tissue samples were collected from GBM patients and individuals with non-neurooncological diseases (NND). The methylation status of the four genes was analyzed, and the clinical characteristics and survival of GBM patients were evaluated.

- description
- Determine the prognostic and predictive significance of the DNA methylation patterns of the examined genes in Egyptian GBM patients. Using the EpiTect Methyl II PCR Kit, The methylation levels of four genes: MGMT, NUPR1, NDRG2, and GLI1 were measured. Then, using Spearman correlation, their levels were correlated with GBM progression and therapeutic response to the chemotherapeutic drug \[temozolomide\].
