Abstract: A method of selecting a subject having cancer for treatment with a Hedgehog signaling inhibitor by determining the level of expression of at least one biomarker in a biological sample derived from the subject.

Abstract: A signature set of genes associated with hepatitis C virus infection is described.

Abstract: This invention relates to a nucleotide array containing polynucleotide probes complementary to, or fragments of, Cynomolgus monkey genes, and the use of such a nucleotide array to characterize the biological effects, including the actions, targets, and toxicities, of therapeutic agents in primates, e.g., a human, a Cynomolgus monkey, or a Rhesus monkey, in particular a nucleotide array to be used in identifying the toxicities of therapeutic agents administered to a non-human primate, e.g., a Cynomolgus monkey or a Rhesus monkey.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are novel human nucleic acid sequences that have homology to thymosin, ephrin A receptors, proteoglycans and fibromodulin. Also disclosed are polypeptides encoded by these nucleic acid sequences, and antibodies which immunospecifically-bind to the polypeptide, as well as derivatives, variants, mutants, or fragments of the aforementioned polypeptide, polynucleotide, or antibody. The invention further discloses therapeutic, diagnostic and research methods for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disorders involving these novel nucleic acids and proteins.
