<p>The present invention relates to an in vitro method for diagnosing or detecting a predisposition to a condition at least partially characterised by inappropriate fibrosis or scarring (e.g. Dupuytren's Disease). The method comprises examining the ZF9 gene, and regulatory elements thereof, derived from a subject of interest to detect the presence of a genetic poylmorphism or mutation in said gene which is linked with the condition.</p> |
