Figure 3

SFRP2 promoter DNA methylation analysis. Box and whiskers representation of average DNA methylation percentages at SFRP2 promoter region. Methylation levels increased in a progressive fashion that coincided with the progression of liver disease from chronic hepatitis to HCC. Significance of difference in methylation level calculated by Mann–Whitney test (p values) are shown where relevant. For more detailed information about group-wise comparison, see Table 3. N = Normal, CH = Chronic Hepatitis, LC = Liver Cirrhosis, HCC = Hepatocellular Carcinoma.
