Background: Exposure to cytotoxic chemotherapy treatment may alter DNA methylation (DNAm) in breast cancer patients. Methods: We performed DNAm analysis in 125 breast cancer patients with blood drawn before and after chemotherapy, using the Illumina MethylationEPIC array. DNAm changes of 588,798 ind...
