Non-random fragmentation patterns in circulating cell-free DNA reflect epigenetic regulation
1 Dec 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The assessment of cell-free circulating DNA fragments, also known as a "liquid biopsy" of the patient's plasma, is an important source for the discovery and subsequent non-invasive monitoring of cancer and other pathological conditions. Although the nucleosome-guided fragmentation patterns of cell-free DNA (cfDNA) have not yet been studied in detail, non-random representation of cfDNA sequencies may...
