ANKRD26 as a marker for diagnosis of thrombocytopenias

摘要

The present invention relates to an in vitro method for diagnosing thrombocytopenia in a subject, said method comprising the step of assessing the ANKRD26 platelet expression in a biological sample from said subject, and wherein a ANKRD26 platelet expression is indicative of a thrombocytopenia. The present invention also provides a kit for diagnosing a thrombocytopenia in a subject, which comprises at least one ANKRD26 nucleic acid probe or oligonucleotide or antibody for assessing the ANKRD26 platelet expression in a biological sample from said subject.
