Abstract:
Biomarkers can be assessed for diagnostic, therapy-related or prognostic methods to identify phenotypes, such as a condition or disease, or the stage or progression of a disease. Circulating biomarkers from a bodily fluid can be used in profiling of physiological states or determining phenotypes. These include nucleic acids, protein, and circulating structures such as vesicles. Biomarkers can be used for theranostic purposes to select candidate treatment regimens for diseases, conditions, disease stages, and stages of a condition, and can also be used to determine treatment efficacy. The biomarkers can be circulating biomarkers, including vesicles and microRNA.
Abstract:
Provided herein are methods and systems for isolating, storing, and analyzing a vesicle from a sample The vesicle can be isolated using one or more lectins that bind to a vesicle One or more additional binding agents, such as a non lectin binding agent can also be used to isolate or analyze a vesicle
Abstract:
Methods and compositions for the characterizing of cancers by assessing RNA levels, such as determining an RNA pattern, are provided herein. The diagnosis, prognosis, monitoring and treatment or a cancer can be determined by detecting one or more RNAs, such as microRNAs.

Abstract:
A set of contiguous and partially overlapping cDNA sequences and polypeptides encoded thereby, designated as CS193 and transcribed from GI tract tissue, are described. These sequences are useful for the detecting, diagnosing, staging, monitoring, prognosticating, preventing or treating, or determining the predisposition of an individual to diseases and conditions of the GI tract, such as GI tract cancer. Also provided are antibodies which specifically bind to CS193-encoded polypeptide or protein, and agonists or inhibitors which prevent action of the tissue-specific CS193 polypeptide, which molecules are useful for the therapeutic treatment of GI tract diseases, tumors or metastases.

Abstract:
Exosomes can be used for detecting biomarkers for diagnostic, therapy-related or prognostic methods to identify phenotypes, such as a condition or disease, for example, the stage or progression of a disease. Cell-of-origin exosomes can be used in profiling of physiological states or determining phenotypes. Biomarkers or markers from cell-of-origin specific exosomes can be used to determine treatment regimens for diseases, conditions, disease stages, and stages of a condition, and can also be used to determine treatment efficacy. Markers from cell-of-origin specific exosomes can also be used to identify conditions of diseases of unknown origin.

Abstract:
A set of contiguous and partially overlapping cDNA sequences and polypeptides encoded thereby, designated as BS325 and transcribed from breast tissue, is described. These sequences are useful for the detecting, diagnosing, staging, monitoring, prognosticating, in vivo imaging, preventing or treating, or determining the predisposition of an individual to diseases and conditions of the breast, such as breast cancer. Also provided are antibodies which specifically bind to SB325-encoded polypeptide or protein, and agonists or inhibitors which prevent action of the tissue-specific BS325 polypeptide, which molecules are useful for the therapeutic treatment of breast diseases, tumors or metastases.
