Genome wide DNA methylation profile in expressed prostatic secretions of normal and, benign and malignant prostatic lesions of diseased individuals. Genome wide DNA methylation profile in expressed prostatic secretions of normal and, benign and malignant prostatic lesions of diseased individuals

Genome wide DNA methylation profiling was done on expressed prostatic secretions (EPS) of normal individuals and dry-core needle biopsy samples of benign and malignant (Primary tumor) prostatic lesions. The Illumina Infinium 850k Infinium MethylationEPIC v 1.0 was used to obtain DNA methylation profiles across approximately 850,000 CpGs in EPS and prostatic lesion biopsy samples. Samples included 4 EPS of normal individuals, and 8 biopsy tissues of benign, and malignant lesions each of patient individuals. Overall design: Bisulphite converted DNA from the 20 samples including 4 EPS (of normal individuals), 8 BPH and 8 malignant (Primary tumor) prostatic lesions were hybridised to the Infinium MethylationEPIC v 1.0
