Selection of CpG islands and primer design for methylation-specific PCR (MS-PCR). Human CD36 CpG island sequences (promoter region). Binding sites for transcription factors are underlined. Primer sequences were used for methylation-specific PCR (MS-PCR). Amplified sequences: M-forward primer: primer designed for methylated DNA. U-forward prier: forward primer designed for unmethylated DNA
