Aberrant Methylation in Promoters of GSTP1, p16, p14, and RASSF1A Genes in Smokers of North India
Figure 3
Aberrant gene methylation in smokers and nonsmokers. What shown on-axis is the methylation rate percentage of methylation-positive cases (%) for each of the four genes indicated on the -axis. The methylation rate of the GSTP1, p16 (), and RASSF1A () genes is significantly higher in the smokers group than the nonsmoker group. The methylation rate for p14 shows higher trend for smokers but does not reach statistical significance.
