背景资料
MGMT is an enzyme that repairs O-6-methylguanine, a mutagenic DNA base damaged by endogenous and environmental alkylating agents and takes part in the cellular defense against the biological effects of O-6-methylguanine in DNA. MGMT repairs alkylated guanine in DNA by stoichiometrically transferring the alkyl group at the O-6 position to a cysteine residue in the enzyme. abnormal MGMT expression correlates with the prognosis in human solid cancers. MGMT decrease of expression is correlated with methylation. The human MGMT is a negative regulator of estrogen receptor-mediated transcription upon alkylation DNA damage. MGMT promoter hypermethylation plays an important role in the early steps of colorectal carcinogenesis. Abnormal promoter hypermethylation of MGMT gene is associated with oral squamous cell carcinomas.
