Clin Epigenetics

Article Synopsis
- Despite significant advances in epigenetic research over the past five decades, most clinical applications remain limited, with only a few hospitals utilizing epigenetic biomarkers for patient care.
- The concept of precision medicine, which tailors treatment based on individual genetic and epigenetic profiles, is not widely adopted in everyday medical practices, as many still rely on a more traditional, reductionist approach.
- The paper highlights the progress in understanding epigenetic biomarkers and emphasizes the need to shift towards network medicine, where molecular diagnostics can inform more personalized treatment strategies, particularly for diseases like cancer.
