Aberrant DNA methylation, which often occurs around the transcriptional start site (TSS) within a CpG island, was evaluated using Q-MSP. The sequences of primers used in this study are shown in Supplementary Table S3. A standard curve for Q-MSP was constructed by plotting five serially diluted standard solutions of EpiScope methylated HeLa gDNA (TaKaRa). To analyse the normalised methylation value (NMV) of the PCR conditions, an analytical method was used as previously described [44 (link)].
