Cancer is an evolutionary disease, but does knowing a cancer’s evolutionary past help predict its future? Out today in @nature, we learnt the evolution of 2000 lymphoid cancers and found it was highly correlated with clinical outcomes! (1/7) rdcu.be/eFrrc

Fluctuating DNA methylation tracks cancer evolution at clinical scale

Nature - Cancer evolutionary dynamics are quantitatively inferred using a method, EVOFLUx, applied to fluctuating DNA methylation.

Lineage tracking using methylation states from longitudinal bulk sampling. Sounds 🆒 and given recent work by @trevorgraham.bsky.social and colleagues, looks real. Wondering about other applications like 🦠🧫 👉🏻News and views: www.nature.com/articles/d41... 👉🏻Paper www.nature.com/articles/s41...

Epigenetic clues from cancer’s past foretell its future

An innovative method to trace tumour evolution using patterns of fluctuating DNA modifications could be implemented in the clinic to predict cancer progression.
