DNA Methylation Biomarkers in Stool Samples: Enhancing Colorectal Cancer Screening Strategies

Colorectal cancer (CRC) is a significant global health challenge, ranking among the leading causes of cancer-related mortality worldwide. Despite efforts in prevention and early detection, CRC incidence and mortality rates are expected to rise substantially. Traditional screening methods like gFOBT,...
