    Abstract DNA methylation of promoter CpG islands silences their downstream genes, and enhancer methylation can be associated with decreased or increased gene expression. DNA methylation alterations in normal and diseased cells provide rich information, such as tissue origin, disease risk, patient response, and prognosis. DNA methylation status is detected by bisulfite conversion, which converts unmethylated cytosines into uracils but methylated cytosines very inefficiently. A genome-wide DNA methylation analysis is conducted by a BeadChip microarray or next-generation sequencing (NGS) of bisulfite-treated DNA. A region-specific DNA methylation analysis can be conducted by various methods, such as methylation-specific PCR (MSP), quantitative MSP, and bisulfite sequencing. This chapter provides protocols for bisulfite-mediated conversion, a BeadChip array-based method (Infinium), quantitative MSP, and bisulfite sequencing.

    Abstract In this issue of Cancer Cell, Tao et al. provide compelling evidence that aging-like DNA methylation of multiple CpG islands, the CpG island methylator phenotype (CIMP), produces a cellular context that can tolerate BRAF activation avoiding senescence by dedicating 5-month culture of colon-derived organoids to epigenomic and stemness analysis.

    Abstract Cancer is a major cause of global mortality underpinned by genomic and epigenomic derangements. Here, we highlight the importance of multimodal data integration in understanding the molecular evolution of malignant cell states across the cancer life cycle. The widespread presence of driver mutations and epigenetic alterations in normal-appearing tissues is prompting a reassessment of how cancer initiation is defined. In later-stage cancers, studying the roles of clonal selection, epigenomic adaptation, and persister cells in metastasis and therapy resistance is an emerging field. Finally, the importance of tumor ecosystems in driving cancer development is being unraveled by single-cell and spatial technologies at unprecedented resolution. Improving cancer risk assessment and accelerating therapeutic discovery for patients will require robust, comprehensive, and integrated temporal, spatial, and multilevel tumor atlases across the cancer life cycle.

    Abstract Cancers develop due to the accumulation of genetic and epigenetic alterations. Genetic alterations are induced by aging, mutagenic chemicals, ultraviolet light, and other factors; whereas, epigenetic alterations are mainly by aging and chronic inflammation. The accumulation and patterns of alterations in normal cells reflect our past exposure levels and life history. Most accumulated alterations are considered as passengers, but their accumulation is correlated with cancer drivers. This has been shown for aberrant DNA methylation but has only been speculated for genetic alterations. However, recent technological advancements have enabled measurement of rare point mutations, and studies have shown that their accumulation levels are indeed correlated with cancer risk. When the accumulation levels of aberrant DNA methylation and point mutations are combined, risk prediction becomes even more accurate. When high levels of alterations accumulate, the tissue has a high risk of developing cancer or even multiple cancers and is considered as a "cancerization field", with or without expansion of physiological patches of clonal cells. In this review, we describe the formation of a cancerization field and how we can apply its detection in precision cancer risk diagnosis.
