The current state of DNA methylation biomarkers in self-collected liquid biopsies for the early detection of cervical cancer: a literature review

Abstract Cervical cancer (CC) is a preventable disease and treatable cancer. Most of the new cases and deaths from CC occur in Low- and Middle-Income Countries (LMICs) due to cultural and systematic barriers leading to low CC screening uptake. In recent years, self-sampling has been proposed as a me...
