DETECTION OF GRANULOSA-CELL TUMORS |
摘要 |
A method of detecting a granulosa-cell tumor is described herein. The method involves detecting a mutation in a sample derived from a subject, indicative of substitution of tryptophan in place of cysteine at amino acid position 134 of FOXL2 protein. The mutation may be detected as a DNA mutation 402C>G in the FOXL2 gene. Methods for screening for a granulosa-cell tumor from a blood-based assay are provided, as well as methods for making a determination that an ovarian tumor is not a granulosa-cell tumor. Kits for granulosa-cell tumors are described, and a method of treating a granulosa-cell tumor are also described.
