It has now been revealed that, in the chromosomes of cells of meningioma,nglioma, pituitary adenoma, biliary region carcinoma, ovarian clear cell adenocarcinoma,nnon-clear cell adenocarcinoma, corpus uteri cancer, hepatocellular carcinoma, stomachncancer, esophageal squamous cell carcinoma or oral squamous cell carcinoma, there isnamplifications or deletions of DNA in the regions specific for each cancer. Thenpresent invention provides a method for diagnosing cancers by detecting thenamplification or deletion in chromosome regions which are specific for each of thenabove cancers. |
