Method for prognosing cancer and the proteins involved

   
   

The present invention discloses methods of distinguishing aggressive forms of prostate cancer from non-aggressive forms. In particular, two proteins that are specifically down-regulated in aggressive prostate cancer cells have been identified. One of the proteins is a novel transcription factor that is specifically involved in the apoptosis of cancer cells. The nucleic acid and amino acid sequences of the novel transcription factor is also disclosed.

Присытствыющий вымысел показывает методы различать завоевательные формы рака простаты от нон-zavoevatel6nyx форм. В частности, 2 протеина который специфически вниз-otregulirovany в завоевательных клетках рака простаты были определены. Один из протеинов будет фактором транскрипции романа специфически включается в apoptosis клеток рака. Нуклеиновой последовательности кислоты и amino acid фактора транскрипции романа также показаны.
