Project Abstract

Abstract
Cancer continues to be a leading cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide, with a pressing need for innovative approaches to understand and combat this complex disease. Epigenetics, the study of changes in gene expression or cellular phenotype that do not involve alterations in the underlying DNA sequence, has emerged as a key area of research in cancer biology. This research project aims to explore the role of epigenetics in cancer development and treatment, with a focus on understanding the molecular mechanisms underlying epigenetic changes and their implications for cancer progression. Chapter one provides an introduction to the research topic, highlighting the background of study, problem statement, objectives, limitations, scope, significance, structure of the research, and definitions of key terms related to epigenetics and cancer. Chapter two presents a comprehensive literature review that examines ten key studies and findings related to epigenetic changes in cancer development and treatment. In chapter three, the research methodology is detailed, outlining the approach, design, participants, data collection methods, analysis techniques, ethical considerations, and limitations of the study. Chapter four presents a detailed discussion of the research findings, including seven key items that highlight the implications of epigenetic changes for cancer biology, potential treatment strategies, challenges, and future research directions. Finally, chapter five offers a conclusion and summary of the project research, discussing the main findings, implications for cancer research and treatment, limitations of the study, and recommendations for future research. Overall, this project contributes to the growing body of knowledge on the role of epigenetics in cancer development and treatment, with potential implications for improving cancer diagnosis, prognosis, and therapeutic approaches.
