A multiplex blood-based assay targeting DNA methylation in PBMCs enables early detection of breast cancer

Abstract The immune system can monitor tumor development, and DNA methylation is involved in the body’s immune response to tumors. In this work, we investigate whether DNA methylation alterations in peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) could be used as markers for early detection of breast can...
