Epigenetic Markers of Cell Division and Ageing in Relation to Breast Cancer Survival

International Journal of Cancer, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Breast cancer remains a major challenge to public health. Biomarkers may be useful to improve prediction of breast cancer survival. Several epigenetic markers of cell division and ageing based on DNA methylation have been proposed. In this study, we measured these epigenetic markers in breast tumours and assessed their prognostic value.
