Abstract
The present invention provides a novel method for the selection of serum biomarkers of epigenetic alterations, particularly of global hypomethylation, and the use of said biomarkers in a method for screening, diagnosing and following a pathology associated to epigenetic alterations of cell in an individual, such as placental-related pathology or cancer. The present invention also relates to a method of detecting a predisposition to placental-related pathology or cancer based on the presence or the level of said biomarker in a serum or plasma sample of said patient. The present invention also relates to a method for predicting and following the effect of drugs targeting epigenetic modifications and in particular the effect of demethylating agents. The present invention is directed to a kit comprising such serum biomarkers of epigenetic alterations, particularly of global hypomethylation.
