Abstract: A method for diagnosing a myeloid cancer in a subject, includes the step of analyzing a biological sample from the subject by determining the presence or the absence of a mutation in the ASXL1 (additional sex combs like 1) gene coding for the polypeptide having the sequence SEQ ID N°2. A kit for diagnosing myeloid cancer in a subject including at least one nucleic acid probe or oligonucleotide or at least one antibody, which can be used in a such a method is also described.
Abstract: Methods for identifying ERBB2 (also named HER2) alteration in tumors, in particular cancer, based on the analysis of the expression of at least three genes of the ERBB2 amplicon located within less than one megabase on either side of ERBB2, and eventually of the gene corresponding to the Affymetrix probeset 234046_at (SEQ ID NO: 31), as well as a poynucleotide library useful for the molecular characterization of a cancer including polynucleotide sequences for detecting the genes, and a kit including the library.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a method for analyzing cancer. e.g., breast cancer including detection of differential expression of at least one of the 16 genes encoding serine/threonine kinases listed in Table 1, or of the 16 genes, and to a polynucleotide library including at least one the 16 genes. This finds use in the development of novel applications, in particular in the development of prognosis or diagnostic of breast cancer or for monitoring the treatment of a patient with a breast cancer.

Abstract: The present invention concerns the V617F variant of the protein-tyrosine kinase JAK2, said variant being responsible for Vaquez Polyglobulia. The invention also relates to a first intention diagnostic method for erythrocytosis and thrombocytosis allowing their association with myeloproliferative disorders, or to the detection of the JAK2 V617F variant in myeloproliferative disorders allowing their reclassification in a new nosological group.
