This is why epigenetic has become a very attractive and increasingly investigated field of re-search in order to find new ways of prevention,early detection and treatment of neoplasia. The main known epigenetic modifications that can occur in breast cancer should be developed and better investigated in order to expose the future role that control of epigenetic modifica-tions might play in prevention, prognostication, follow-up and treatment of BC.
Epigenetic biomarkers found in peripheral blood might become new tools to detect BC, to define its prognostic and to predict its outcome, whereas epi-drugs might have an increasing
