Аннотация
BACKGROUND: Pancreatic cancer is a lethal disease with a poor 5-year survival rate. Pathogenic germline variants in the coding regions of ATM, BRCA1, and BRCA2 are found in up to 4.8% of pancreatic cancer patients. Germline promoter methylation and gene silencing arising from a germline variant or through other mechanisms have been described as a cause of tumor suppressor gene inactivation.
METHODS: We measured the level of promoter methylation of the ATM, BRCA1, and BRCA2 genes in peripheral blood lymphocytes from 655 patients with pancreatic cancer using real-time PCR.
RESULTS: No evidence of germline promoter methylation of any of these genes was found. Promoter methylation levels were minimal with no patient having promoter methylation greater than 3.4%, 3.3%, and 7.6% for ATM, BRCA1 and BRCA2, respectively, well below levels found in patients who have inherited promoter methylation (∼50%).
CONCLUSIONS: We found no evidence of germline promoter methylation for the pancreatic susceptibility genes ATM, BRCA1 and BRCA2 in patients with pancreatic cancer. This study reveals that constitutive germline methylation of promoter CpG islands is rare in pancreatic cancer.
