As shown in Figure 2B, methylation of FBP1 promoter was readily detected in liver cancer cell lines HepG2, HuH7, HCC-LM3, BEL-7402, SMMC-7721, Sk-Hep1, MHCC-97H and MHCC-97L, and human colon cancer cell lines HT29, SW480, SW620, HCT116, LoVo and RKO. This evidence concerns the gene FBP1 and liver cancer.
