Regions that underwent loss of methylation in > 30% of NB samples were DMRs annotated to the genes NDN, SNRPN, IGF2, MAGEL2 and HTR5A and regions with gain of methylation were NNAT, RB1 and GPR1. Methylation alterations at six of the 49 imprinted DMRs were statistically significantly associated with reduced overall survival: MIR886, RB1, NNAT/BLCAP, MAGEL2, MKRN3 and INPP5F. RB1, NNAT/BLCAP and MKRN3 were further able to stratify low-risk NB tumours i.e. tumours that lacked MYCN amplification and 11q deletion into risk groups. The gene discussed is CMKLR2; the disease is neuroblastoma.
