Methylation of cell-free circulating DNA in the diagnosis of cancer
A range of molecular alterations found in tumor cells, such as DNA mutations and methylation changes, is also reflected in cell-free circulating DNA (circDNA) released from the tumor into the blood, thereby making circDNA an ideal candidate for the basis of a blood-based cancer diagnosis test. In ma...
