A method and kit for detecting Graft versus Host Disease (GVHD) in a mammal including a human comprising the steps of; obtaining a sample from the patient or subject; measuring the level of GSK-3.beta. inactivation by measuring beta-catenin levels in the absence of serine 9 phosphorylation, or by measuring the site of stimulation on the GSK-3beta once stimulated through the activated Wnt pathway, or by measuring a protein marker that is unique to the inactivation of GSK-3 beta through the activated Wnt pathway, comparing the result of said inactivation levels with a predetermined normal inactivation value obtained from healthy subjects, such that a deviation of at least about 25 % from normal inactivation values indicates the presence of GVHD. |
