DNA methylation is an important part of epigenetics. In this study, we examined the methylation state of two CpG islands in the promoter of the  p16  gene in radiation-induced thymic lymphoma samples. The mRNA and protein levels of P16 were significantly reduced in radiation-induced thymic lymphoma tissue samples. Twenty-three CpG sites of the CpG islands in the  p16  promoter region were detected, and the methylation percentages of −71, −63, −239, −29, −38, −40, −23, 46 CpG sites were significantly higher in radiation-induced thymic lymphoma tissue samples than those in matched non-irradiated thymus tissue samples. This study provides new evidence for the methylation state of  p16  in the radiation-induced thymic lymphoma samples, which suggests that the methylation of these CpG sites in the  p16  promoter may reduce its expression in the thymic lymphoma after irradiation.
