Van Andel Institute scientists identified two distinct epigenetic states that arise during development and are linked to cancer risk.
One of these states is associated with a lower lifetime risk while the other is linked to a higher lifetime risk.
Epigenetics are processes that affect how and when the instructions in DNA are carried out.
