Cell-free DNA can be used for non-invasive cancer detection and disease monitoring to enhance personalized medicine.

Disrupting any of the three systems that contribute to epigenetic alterations can cause abnormal activation or silencing of genes. Such disruptions have been associated with cancer, syndromes ...

Cancer epigenetics is the study of somatically heritable changes to molecular processes that influence the flow of information between the DNA of cancer cells and their gene expression patterns.

On the other hand, epigenetic modifications can lead to aberrant functions or suppression of a range of signalling cascades, which can ultimately result in cancer. Various studies have observed the ...
