Methylation-sensitive high-resolution melting (MS-HRM) is a new technique for DNA methylation analysis, but it is rarely used for the detection of viral DNA methylation. In this study, we investigated the HPV-16L1 gene methylation that is detected by MS-HRM as a potential biomarker for prognosing cervical dysplasia and cancer.
