More Information
Summary:The present invention relates to novel markers for cancers. In particular the present invention relates to a method of determining whether a tumor is developing in the aero-digestive system, or whether a subject is relapsing after treatment of such a tumor. The method comprises determining the methylation level, the number of methylated CpG sites or the methylation state of CpG sites in a nucleic acid sequence in the promoter region, first exon or intron, of one or more genes selected from the group consisting of CNRIP1, MAL, FBN1, SPG20, SNCA, and INA. The method further relates to a diagnostic kit for detecting tumors in the aero-digestive tract.
