  • Publication number: 20190024188
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to the DNA or to the RNA or protein expression profiles are indicative of the onset, predisposition to the onset and/or progression of a neoplasm. More particularly, the present invention is directed to nucleic acid molecules in respect of which changes to the DNA or to the RNA or protein expression profiles are indicative of the onset and/or progression of a large intestine neoplasm, such as a adenoma or an adeocarcinoma. The DNA or the expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to, those relating to the diagnosis and/or monitoring of colorectal neoplasms, such as colorectal adenocarcinoma.

  • Publication number: 20170260585
    Abstract: The present invention relates generally to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. More particularly, the present invention relates to an array of nucleic acid molecules, the expression profiles of which characterise the proximal or distal origin of a cell or population of cells within the large intestine. The expression profiles of the present invention are useful in a range of applications including, but not limited to determining the anatomical origin of a cell or population of cells which have been derived from the large intestine.
