Implementation of the Methylome in the Characterization of Solid Tumors

Sponsor: IRCCS Azienda Ospedaliero-Universitaria di Bologna

Summary

This study aims to investigate the functional consequences of specific methylation changes and to examine the clinical implications of these alterations. Methylation analysis is a powerful tool for understanding the molecular mechanisms of brain tumors and other solid tumors and can help identify new diagnostic and therapeutic targets. By analyzing DNA methylation patterns in tumor tissue, it is possible to identify genes that are silenced or activated by methylation. This information can be used to develop new biomarkers for early diagnosis and to identify new therapeutic targets that can be used to reverse methylation-mediated gene silencing.
