10.30699/jogcr.4.2.62 Background & Objective: Cervical cancer is the second most prevalent cancer in women worldwide and is one of the leading causes of deaths in women with cancer in developing countries. The most well-known cause of this cancer is being infected with human papillomavirus (HPV). This study aimed at evaluating the concurrent methylation pattern of the human papillomavirus genome in studying the DAPK1 gene as a diagnostic biomarker in cervical cancer.
