Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for identifying genomic loci (e.g., vimentin and/or SqBE18) that are differentially methylated in metaplasias (e.g., Barrett's esophagus) and/or neoplastic cancers (e.g., esophageal cancers). Identification of methylated genomic loci has numerous uses, including for example, to characterize disease risk, to predict responsiveness to therapy, to non-invasively diagnose subjects and to treat subjects determined to have gastrointestinal metaplasias and/or neoplasias.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for identifying genomic loci that are differentially methylated in colorectal neoplasias. Identification of methylated genomic loci has numerous uses, including for example, to characterize disease risk, to predict responsiveness to therapy, to non-invasively diagnose subjects and to treat subjects determined to have colorectal neoplasias.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for storage solutions for preserving DNA methylation patterns over a period of time. The disclosure also provides for methods of using methylated DNA stored in such storage solutions.
Abstract:
The disclosure provides methods for identifying genomic loci that are differentially/methylated in neoplastic cancers, e.g., esophageal cancers. Identification of methylated genomic loci, and optionally in combination with the identification of somatic mutations in TP53, has numerous uses, including for example, to characterize disease risk, to predict responsiveness to therapy, to non-invasively diagnose subjects and to treat subjects determined to have gastrointestinal neoplasias.
Abstract:
This application describes methods and compositions for detecting and treating C6Orf150-associated neoplasia. Differential methylation of the C6Orf150 nucleotide sequences has been observed in C6Orf150-associated neoplasia such as colon neoplasia.

Abstract:
A method of detecting Barrett's esophagus with low grade dysplasia, or Barrett's esophagus with high grade dysplasia, or adenocarcinoma of the esophagus, applying a Repetitive Element Aneuploidy Sequencing System (RealSeqS) methodology to a biological sample from the esophagus of the subject to detect Barrett's esophagus with low grade dysplasia, or Barrett's esophagus with high grade dysplasia, or adenocarcinoma of the esophagus.
