Technological Innovation in Epigenetics Services: Sequencing Costs Drop to 1/20th Since 2018

Epigenetics services are a series of specialized services tailored to the needs of epigenetic research and related applications. Epigenetics investigates the heritable variation in gene expression without altering the DNA sequence. Analysis services utilize technologies such as next-generation sequencing (NGS) to conduct genome-wide epigenetic analyses, such as DNA methylation profiling and chromatin immunoprecipitation sequencing (ChIP-seq), to analyze DNA methylation and demethylation status and their functional impact on cell development and differentiation.

The epigenetics services market is experiencing rapid growth with a broad range of application prospects. It is driven by factors such as the increasing prevalence of cancer and the development of personalized medicine. Technological innovation is accelerating, and the market shows a trend of regional differentiation.

The global cancer prevalence is on the rise. According to the WHO, cancer killed about 10 million people in 2020, and the IARC projects 28.4 million new cases by 2040, a 47% increase. This has driven up the demand for epigenetic drugs and diagnostics, as researchers seek more effective, targeted treatments based on gene expression variations.

Technologies such as single-cell epigenomic sequencing have seen significant cost reductions. The cost has dropped to 1/20th of that in 2018, and the market share of domestic sequencing instruments has increased from 12% in 2020 to 31% in 2023, expected to achieve import substitution by 2028.

According to the new market research report “Global Epigenetics Services Supply, Demand and Key Producers, 2025-2031”, published by Global Info Research, the global Epigenetics Services market size is projected to reach USD 0.28 billion by 2031, at a CAGR of 5.6% during the forecast period.
