titleOfInvention |
Differential gene expression in specific regions of the brain in neurodegenerative diseases |
abstract |
The present invention provides nucleic acid molecules that can function as PCR primers for the detection of contactin mRNA in a sample. Such nucleic acid molecules can be labeled and can be provided in a kit. The present invention also includes a method of detecting the presence of a neurodegenerative disease such as multiple sclerosis, including providing a sample from a patient and measuring the amount of contactin protein or contactin mRNA expressed in the sample. The present invention further provides a method for identifying which patents having a neurodegenerative disease are likely to respond to a treatment for a neurodegenerative disease. The present invention further includes compositions of matter that include an isolated cell or a cell in culture that expresses an increased or decreased amount of contactin as compared to a control cell. The present invention also includes a method for screening compounds for the activity of reducing or enhancing the expression of contactin and compositions or compounds, including pharmaceutical compositions, identified by this method. Also included are methods of treating a neurodegenerative disease using such compositions or compounds. The present invention also includes methods of identifying pharmaceutical targets for compounds that modulate contactin expression or activity and targets identified by such methods. |
