Fig. 1From: Feasibility of quantifying SDC2 methylation in stool DNA for early detection of colorectal cancerAssessment of methylation levels of the SDC2 gene in colorectal tissues by bisulfite-pyrosequencing. Methylation level of the SDC2 gene was evaluated in normal mucosa (N), hyperplastic (HP) and adenomatous polyps (Ade), and CRC tissues. The MtIs of each sample are represented by box and whisker plots. The difference in MtI of SDC2 is statistically significant at *P < 0.01 calculated by Kruskal-Wallis test in adenomatous polyps vs. normal controls, hyperplastic polyps vs. normal controls, CRC vs. normal controls, and CRC vs. adenomatous polypsBack to article page
