摘要:
Disclosed is a method of testing for colorectal cancer in a test individual by providing data corresponding to a level of products of selected biomarkers and applying the data to a formula to provide an indication of whether the test individual has colorectal cancer. Also disclosed are kits for measuring data corresponding to the products of selected biomarkers, and kits and methods of monitoring therapeutic efficacy of treatments for colorectal cancer.
摘要:
In one aspect the invention is a method of testing for one or more colorectal pathologies or one or more subtypes of colorectal pathology (in one embodiment colorectal cancer) in a test individual by providing data corresponding to a level of products of selected biomarkers and applying the data to a formula to provide an indication of whether the test individual has one or more colorectal pathologies or one or more subtypes of colorectal pathology. In some aspects the method is computer based and a computer applies the data to the formula. In other aspects a computer system is configured with instructions that cause the processor to provide a user with the indication of whether the test individual has colorectal pathology. Also encompassed are kits for measuring data corresponding to the products of selected biomarkers which in some embodiments include a computer readable medium. Also encompassed are kits and methods of monitoring therapeutic efficacy of treatments for one or more colorectal pathologies.

摘要:
The invention relates to the identification and selection of novel biomarkers and the identification and selection of novel biomarker combinations which are differentially expressed in individuals with mild osteoarthritis as compared with individuals without osteoarthritis. Polynucleotides and proteins which specifically and/or selectively hybridize to the products of the biomarkers of the invention are also encompassed within the scope of the invention as are kits containing said polynucleotides and proteins for use in diagnosing mild osteoarthritis. Further encompassed by the invention is the use of the polynucleotides and proteins which specifically and/or selectively hybridize to the product of the biomarkers of the invention to monitor disease regression in an individual and to monitor the efficacy of therapeutic regimens. The invention also provides for methods of using the products of the biomarkers of the invention in the identification of novel therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis.

摘要:
The invention relates to the identification and selection of novel biomarkers and the identification and selection of novel biomarker combinations which are differentially expressed in osteoarthritis and/or in a particular stage of osteoarthritis, as well as a means of selecting the novel biomarker combinations. The measurement of expression of the products of the biomarkers and combinations of biomarkers demonstrates particular advantage in one or more of the following: (a) diagnosing individuals as having arthritis, (b) differentiating between two stages of osteoarthritis (OA) and (c) diagnosing individuals as having a particular stage of OA. Polynucleotides and proteins which specifically and/or selectively hybridize to the products of the biomarkers are within the scope of the invention as are kits containing the polynucleotides and proteins and the use of the polynucleotides and proteins. The biomarker products can be used to identify therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis, and compounds that bind and/or modulate gene activity.

The invention also provides for methods of using the products of the biomarkers of the invention in the identification of novel therapeutic targets for osteoarthritis. The invention also provides for methods of using the products of the biomarkers of the invention in the identification of compounds that bind and/or modulate the activity of the genes of the invention. The compounds identified via such methods are useful for the development of assays to study osteoarthritis and osteoarthritis progression. Further, the compounds identified via such methods are useful as lead compounds in the development of prophylactic and therapeutic compositions for the prevention, treatment, management and/or amelioration of osteoarthritis or a symptom thereof.
