FHL1 and leiomyoma: A study on the methylation of DNA in leiomyoma revealed hypomethylation of the FHL1 gene in leiomyoma [24], meaning that a transcriptional profiling of the leiomyoma and of the unaffected myometrium revealed an upregulation of FHL1 m-RNA in the leiomyoma [25], which is in agreement with our data on protein expression.
