Genome-wide DNA methylation analysis reveals a unique methylation pattern for pleural mesothelioma compared to healthy pleura and other lung diseases

Abstract Background Pleural mesothelioma (PM) is a rare and aggressive cancer type, typically diagnosed at advanced stages. Distinguishing PM from other lung diseases is often challenging. There is an urgent need for biomarkers that can enable early detection. Interest in the field of epigenetics ha...
