Compounds for detection and treatment of colorectal lesions

摘要

The present invention relates to molecules associated with colorectal lesions. The invention is more specifically related to polypeptides and nucleic acids comprising at least portions of nucleic acids or polypeptides, the expression of which is significantly altered in association with colorectal lesions. Such combinations of nucleic acids and/or polypeptides may be used for enhanced diagnosis, progression monitoring and assessment of prognosis of colorectal lesions. Furthermore the present invention provides a method for early diagnosis, assessment of prognosis and monitoring of the disease course and for therapy and vaccination of colorectal lesions.
