Abstract
Cancer has always been one of the main threats to human health. Looking for its potential pathogenic mechanism is a major challenge facing humanity. Epigenetic mechanisms are essential to maintain specific gene expression patterns and the normal development of life individuals. They mainly regulate gene function and expression levels through DNA methylation, histone modification, and RNA regulation. When the epigenetic regulation is abnormal, it interferes with the expression and function of normal genes to a certain extent, which may lead to the occurrence of tumors. Therefore, epigenetic modification is closely related to tumorigenesis. In order to understand the nature of cancer and open up novel treatment methods, it is particularly important to figure out the mechanism of epigenetics in cancer. This article outlines the research content of epigenetics, focusing on its relationship with tumorigenesis. At the same time, the application of epigenetics in cancer therapy is prospected.
