To test potential DNMT involvement in VEGFA‐driven miR‐128‐2 repression, and since DNA methyltransferases genes, DNMT3A, DNMT3B, DNMT1, are often coregulated and elevated in cancer stem‐like cells (Yang et al, 2015), we assayed all three methyltransferases. This evidence concerns the gene DNMT3A and cancer.
