摘要:
This invention relates to methodologies that detect global changes in the methylation of human genomic DNA as well as changes in methylation in specific regions of the human genome. The methodologies have utility in the diagnosis, prognosis and monitoring of therapeutic treatment for any human disease. Further, the invention relates to methodologies that can detect global changes in the methylation of human genomic DNA that is a consequence of diet and/or dietary supplements. The invention also relates to identifying novel DNA methylation biomarkers that are associated with human disease.
