An overview of cancer-epigenetics

Cancer epigenetics refers to the study of heritable changes in gene expression that occur without alterations in the DNA sequence. These changes influence cell behavior and can contribute to the initiation and progression of cancer. Unlike genetic mutations, epigenetic modifications are potentially reversible, making them a promising area for therapeutic interventions.
