| abstract |
Novel markers for colon cancer that are both sensitive and accurate. These markers are overexpressed in colon cancer specifically, as opposed to normal colon tissue. The measurement of these markers, alone or in combination, in patient samples provides information that the diagnostician can correlate with a probable diagnosis of colon cancer. The markers of the present invention, alone or in combination, show a high degree of differential detection between colon cancer and non-cancerous states. |
