摘要
The present invention provides arrays for gene loci that allow diagnosis of cervical cancer in patients who may be asymptomatic or have inconclusive Pap smears or cytology, and allowing earlier diagnosis and treatment of the subject. The present invention also provides methods of determination of a global promoter DNA methylation in a cervical tissue sample from a subject, using a variety of methods which can detect DNA methylation. Further, the invention provides methods of diagnosis of cervical cancer in a subject, by comparing the global promoter DNA methylation in a cervical tissue sample obtained from a subject to the global promoter DNA methylation of standard controls. In addition, the present invention also provides a method of diagnosis of cervical cancer in a subject suspected of having cervical cancer after obtaining a biological sample of cervical tissue comprising DNA from the subject and detecting the amount of promoter methylation on at least one or more DNA target sites selected from the group consisting of ZNF516, INTS1, and FKBP6; and comparing the amount of promoter methylation on at least one or more DNA target sites in the sample of the subject. These methods allow diagnosis of cervical cancer in patients who may be asymptomatic or have inconclusive Pap smears or cytology, and allowing earlier diagnosis and treatment of the subject.
