We will investigate whether there are particular patterns of DNA methylation in people who develop gastric cancer. This could provide a means of identifying people at high risk of developing the disease, which may assist with early detection. This would be expected to markedly improve survival. If we can identify lifestyle factors associated with gastric cancer methylation there may be opportunities for prevention of the disease.

我们将研究在胃癌患者中是否存在特定的DNA甲基化模式。这可以提供一种识别患有这种疾病的高风险人群的方法，这可能有助于早期发现。预计这将显著提高生存率。如果我们能够确定与胃癌甲基化相关的生活方式因素，可能有机会预防这种疾病。
