The present invention provides methods for detecting and diagnosing cancer, which method involves the determination of the expression level of the STYK1 gene. The gene was discovered to discriminate cancer cells from normal cells. Furthermore, the present invention provides methods of screening for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of cancer, methods for treating cancer, and methods for vaccinating a subject against cancer. Moreover, the present invention provides siRNAs targeting the STYK1 gene, which are suggested to be useful in the treatment of cancer. |
