Abstract: The present invention relates to the methods and products for detection of colorectal cancer. Additionally, the present invention relates to methods and products for determining the probability, risk or incidence of colorectal cancer and of colorectal cancer metastasis. The products and methods of the present invention include detecting the level of expression of COL10A1 or MMP11, in combination, from samples, including tissue samples, from humans who currently have been diagnosed with cancer or who were previously diagnosed with cancer and those who are thought to have cancer and are undergoing diagnosis.

Abstract: A microarray for the detection of an angiostatic tumor stage/tumor area of colorectal carcinoma in a patient is provided. In some embodiments, the microarray comprises gene probes capable of specifically hybridizing to predefined nucleic acids. Also provided are inhibitors or modulators of one or more of these nucleic acids, pharmaceutical compositions comprising the disclosed inhibitors and/or modulators, ex vivo methods for diagnosis of an angiostatic tumor stage/tumor area in a patient suffering from a colorectal carcinoma, and methods to predict the response of patients with colorectal carcinoma and other diseases to therapy.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a microarray for the detection of an angiostatic tumor stage/tumor area of colorectal carcinoma in a patient, wherein the microarray comprises gene probes capable of specifically hybridizing to predefined nucleic acids. The invention is further directed to an inhibitor or modulator of one or more of these nucleic acids, as well as to a pharmaceutical composition, comprising those inhibitors or modulators. In a further aspect, the present invention is directed to an ex vivo method for the diagnosis of an angiostatic tumor stage/tumor area in a patient suffering from a colorectal carcinoma. In a further aspect the invention is directed to predict the response of patients with colorectal carcinoma but also other diseases to therapy.

Abstract: A method for the identification and/or quantification of GBP-1 or fragments of this protein in the culture supernatant of a tissue sample, a body fluid sample or a sample from a cell culture supernatant is described.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an expression vector comprising the Guanylate Binding Protein 1 (GBP-1) gene or parts thereof. The introduction of said vector comprising said gene or parts thereof in sense or antisense orientation into cells can be used to induce phenotypical changes of said cells and can, thus, be used for modulation of cell differentiation. Additionally, the present invention provides, inter alia, a method for determination of the stage of cellular differention by using GBP-1 gene expression as a marker.
