DNMT1 overexpression in various cancer types.
DNA (cytosine-5-)-methyltransferase 1, commonly referred to as DNMT1, is an enzyme that plays a crucial role in the maintenance of DNA methylation patterns.
Increased DNMT1 activity can promote tumorigenesis by facilitating the accumulation of methylation changes that drive cancer progression.
Is frequently overexpressed in a variety of cancers, including breast, colorectal, lung, prostate, and hematological malignancies. This overexpression is often associated with hypermethylation of tumor suppressor genes, leading to their silencing and contributing to tumorigenesis.
