Quantification of Global DNA Methylation in Canine Mammary Gland Tumors Immunostaining of 5-Methylcytosine: Histopathological and Clinical Correlations.

Mammary tumors are the most prevalent neoplasms in non-neutered female dogs, with genetic and epigenetic alterations contributing to canine mammary carcinogenesis.
