The current findings and potential applications of breast cancer epigenetics.

One of the three most common cancers in the world today is breast cancer. In recent years, molecular biology studies have highlighted the role of gene mutations. Epigenetic modifications have also been studied and have been shown to be one of the main contributors to the development and progression of breast cancer. Targeting these epigenetic regulatory mechanisms is considered a potential therapeutic strategy with the goal of inhibiting tumor progression and restoring normal gene activity. Epigenetic research has shed light on the important role of epigenetics in various aspects of breast cancer development, the underlying mechanisms of breast cancer, and its potential applications in improving diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. These findings highlight the transformative potential of epigenetics in advancing the understanding and management of breast cancer. From there, it opens opportunities to detect breast cancer early even in a non-invasive way.
