Abstract: The invention relates to a method of typing colorectal cancer cells by determining the RNA levels of a set of signature genes. Said typing can be use for predicting a risk for recurrence of said colorectal cancer. The invention further relates to a set of genes that can be used for normalizing the RNA levels of said set of signature genes, and to micro-array comprising said set of signature genes.
Abstract: The invention provides a method for determining the percentage of tumor cells in a sample of an individual, preferably a breast sample. More specifically, the invention provides one or more genes than can be used to determine the percentage of tumor cells. The invention further provides a set of probes, a set of primers, and uses thereof for detection of said one or more genes.
