摘要

We have investigated the frequency of methylation of several tumour suppressor genes in uveal melanoma. As the loss of one copy of chromosome 3 (monosomy 3),which is found in about half of these tumours, is tightly associated with metastaticdisease, a special emphasis was laid on genes located on this chromosome, includingthe fragile histidine triad (FHIT), von Hippel–Lindau (VHL), β-catenin (CTNNB1),activated leukocyte cell adhesion molecule (ALCAM) and retinoic acid receptor-β2(RARB) genes. In addition, the methylation patterns of the CpG-rich regions 5′of the E-cadherin (CDH1), p16/cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor 2 A (CDKN2A)and retinoblastoma (RB1) genes were analysed by bisulphite genomic sequencing ormethylation-specific PCR (MSP). Furthermore, the SNRPN andD15S63loci, whichare located in the imprinted region of chromosome 15, were included in the study.Aberrant methylation was detected in nine of 40 tumours analysed: The imprintedSNRPNandD15S63loci were hypermethylated in three tumours, all of which retainedboth copies of chromosome 3. MethylatedRARBalleles were detected in threetumours, whereas in three other tumoursCDKN2Awas found to be methylated.As we did not find RARB and CDKN2A preferentially methylated in tumours withmonosomy 3, which is a significant predictor of metastatic disease, we suggest thatthese genes may play a causative role in the formation of uveal melanoma but not inthe development of metastases.
