METHOD OF DETECTING SOLID CANCER CELLS AND HISTOLOGICAL HETEROTYPIA AND METHOD OF EXAMINING TISSUE FOR BONE MARROW TRANSPLANTATION AND PERIPHERAL BLOOD STEM CELL TRANSPLANTATION

摘要

A method of detecting solid cancer cells which comprises measuring the expression level of a WT1 gene in a sample tissue; a method of detecting histological heterotypia which comprises measuring the expression level of a WT1 gene in a sample tissue; and a method of examining a tissue for bone marrow transplantation and peripheral blood stem cell transplantation which comprises measuring the expression level of a WT1 gene in the CD34<-> cell fraction of the tissue to be transplanted to thereby detect leukemic cells and solid cancer cells present therein.
