摘要:
A novel gene (designated 158P1D7) and its encoded protein are described. While 158P1D7 exhibits tissue specific expression in normal adult tissue, it is aberrantly expressed in multiple cancers including set forth in Table 1. Consequently, 158P1D7 provides a diagnostic and/or therapeutic target for cancers. The 158P1D7 gene or fragment thereof, or its encoded protein or a fragment thereof, can be used to elicit an immune response.
摘要:
A novel gene (designated PHOR-1) that is highly overdressed in prostate and other cancers and its encoded protein are described. PHOR-1 is a G protein-coupled receptor with homology to receptors involved in olfaction. PHOR-1 in normal human tissues is restricted to prostate, and this gene is highly over-expressed in prostate cancer as well as in cancers of the kidney, uterus, cervix, stomach and rectum. Consequently, PHOR-1 provides a diagnostic and/or therapeutic target for prostate cancer.
摘要:
Compositions for the diagnosis and therapy of prostate and colon cancer, derived from or based on a novel prostate-specific, androgen-regulated, cell membrane associated and secreted serine protease termed 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 are described. A full length cDNA comprising the entire coding sequence of the 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 gene (also designated 20P1F12-GTC1 herein) is provided (FIG. 1). Among the compositions provided are antibodies that bind to 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 proteins and polypeptide fragments thereof, including antibodies labeled with a detectable marker or toxin or therapeutic composition. The invention also provides prognostic and diagnostic methods of examining a biological sample for evidence of disregulated cellular growth by comparing the status of 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 in the biological sample to the status of 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 in a corresponding normal sample, wherein alterations in the status of 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 in the biological sample are associated with disregulated cellular growth. The invention further provides various therapeutic compositions and strategies for treating prostate cancer, including particularly, 20P1F12/TMPRSS2 polypeptide and anti-20P1F12/TMPRSS2 antibody therapy methods and compositions, cancer vaccines, and small molecule therapy.
摘要:
The present invention relates to methods and compositions for the diagnosis and therapy of prostate cancer which utilize isolated polynucleotides corresponding to the human SGP28 gene, proteins encoded by the SGP28 gene and fragments thereof, and antibodies capable of specifically recognizing and binding to SGP28 proteins.
