Colorectal cancer progression to metastasis is associated with dynamic genome-wide biphasic 5-hydroxymethylcytosine accumulation

Abstract Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) progression from adenoma to adenocarcinoma is associated with global reduction in 5-methylcytosine (5mC) and 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC). DNA hypomethylation continues upon liver metastasis. Here we examine 5hmC changes upon progression to liver metasta...
