[CMP3A-02 (Invited)] Active Demethylation of Cancer Cells using Terahertz Radiation for Potential Cancer Treatment
[Presentation Style] Online
Carcinogenesis involves DNA methylation which is a primary epigenetic alteration in DNA in the development of cancer before genetic mutation. The methylation has been directly observed by terahertz time-domain spectroscopy and this epigenetic chemical change could be manipulated to the state of demethylation using resonant terahertz radiation.
