Integrative DNA methylome analysis of pan-cancer biomarkers in cancer discordant monozygotic twin-pairs
20 Jan 2016
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: A key focus in cancer research is the discovery of biomarkers that accurately diagnose early lesions in non-invasive tissues. Several studies have identified malignancy-associated DNA methylation changes in blood, yet no general cancer biomarker has been identified to date. Here, we explore the potential of blood DNA methylation as a biomarker of pan-cancer (cancer of multiple different origins) in 41...
