The present invention relates to the fields of genetics and oncology and provides methods for detecting cutaneous T-cell lymphomas (CTCL) or susceptibility to CTCL. Specifically, the present invention relates to a novel method for the diagnosis and follow-up of CTCL or CTCL subtype, the method comprising determination of expression of one or more genes, gene fragments or gene products. The present invention further relates to a novel method of detecting the response to CTCL therapy, the method comprising determining expression of one or more genes or gene fragments or gene products in a biological sample. The present invention further relates to a novel method of developing or improving CTCL therapy or developing anti-CTCL medicament, the method comprising screening agents affecting one or several of the genes or gene products. The present invention further relates to a novel method of treating CTCL patients, the method comprising affecting one or several of the genes or gene products. The present invention further relates to a novel test kit, the kit comprising the necessary means for detecting one or more genes, gene fragments or gene products. The present invention also relates to a use of one or more genes, gene fragments or gene products for determination, diagnosis or follow-up of CTCL or CTCL subtype and for detection of the response to CTCL therapy. The present invention also relates to a use of one or more target molecules for CTCL therapy or for the preparation of a medicament for treating CTCL.
