The role of epigenetic mechanisms in cancer has gained interest in recent studies. The reversible nature of epigenetic changes on genomic DNA and histones holds promise for the development of ...

Cancer has long been considered a disease driven by genetic mutations, but new research suggests that your risk may be determined before birth. Scientists at the Van Andel Institute have uncovered ...

@hopkinskimmel researchers develop novel liquid biopsy approach to identifying early-stage cancers. › ...

A person's lifetime risk for cancer may begin before they are even born, reports a paradigm-shifting study by Van Andel Institute scientists. The findings, published in Nature Cancer, identified two ...

A study published in Briefings in Functional Genomics investigated how epigenetics can modulate human's genetic program -- it can emphasize or silence genes. The new research shows that if epigenetics ...

Combined epigenetic and immune checkpoint therapy altered the tumour microenvironment in platinum-resistant ovarian cancer.

Methylation and cancer While these papers looked at the role of chromatin in the genetic expression of cancers, there are other laboratories looking at the role of methylation, another epigenetic ...
