DNA Methylation of SDC2 and TFPI2 Genes in Stool-Derived Intestinal Exfoliated Cells as a Non-Invasive Early Detection Marker for Colorectal Cancer: A Pilot Case–Control Study from Libya

2026-07-30

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Background Colorectal cancer (CRC) poses a significant public health burden in Libya, which reports the highest age-standardized CRC mortality rate (11.7 per 100,000) in North Africa, attributable in part to late-stage diagnosis and limited screening infrastructure. The Fecal Immunochemical Test (FIT), the principal non-invasive modality currently available, has limited sensitivity for...
