EXPRESSION OF NEUROGENIC bHLH GENES IN PRIMITIVE NEUROECTODERMAL TUMORS

摘要

Provided are methods of classifying and prognosticating human neuroectodermal tumors by analyzing a sample of the tumor to determine whether various bHLH proteins are detectably expressed in the sample. In the methods disclosed herein, expression of the bHLH genes is assessed by measuring transcripts or proteins expressed from the genes.
