METHOD OF DETECTING CANCER BASED ON IMMUNE REACTION TO BORIS

摘要

The invention provides a method of detecting a proliferative disease, such as a disease associated with the abnormal expression of BORIS, in a mammal comprising detecting antibodies to BORIS in a sample obtained from the mammal. The invention also provides BORIS polypeptides as well as compositions and kits comprising the BORIS polypeptides and methods of using the same. The invention further provides a method of inducing an immune response in a mammal using BORIS polypeptides.
