ARHGEF4 and neoplasm: Furthermore, functional analysis suggests that altered DNA methylation of extracellular (e.g., O-glycan processing) and intracellular components contribute to activation of oncogenes (e.g. KRAS and SCL2A1) and suppression of tumor suppressors (e.g. ARHGEF4, EPHB2 and SOCS3), leading to increased oncogenic potency.
