DNA methylation data-based molecular subtype classification related to the prognosis of patients with cervical cancer.

Cervical cancer is one of the leading female health-killers among all types of malignancies globally. Human papillomavirus infection combined with genetic and epigenetic alterations have been indicated to be closely associated with the pathogenesis, progression, and malignant transformation of cervical cancer. Notably, during the complex tumorigenesis process, a series of DNA methylations occurs early and is the most frequent molecular behavior.
