The silencing of tumor suppressor genes via DNA hypermethylation and the overexpression of transposable elements via global DNA hypomethylation are well-known patterns of cancer cell formation. The discovery of cancer DNA methylation biomarkers is important for the improvement and design of cancer therapies. The 28 genes of the Cancer Panel were selected from prior breast cancer studies EpigenDx conducted in collaboration with other institutes and universities. However, the panel is customizable to exclude or include any target regions of your interest. All methylation assays of the Cancer Panel were individually validated using DNA extracted from FFPE samples, but a subset of the panel was also validated using cell-free serum plasma DNA. Analyze the entire panel using targeted Next-Generation Bisulfite Sequencing, or analyze a few select regions using Pyrosequencing.
