Title:
IN VITRO DIAGNOSTIC METHOD FOR PATIENTS WITH SPLENIC MARGINAL ZONE LYMPHOMA
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/154579
Kind Code:
A4
Abstract:
The present invention describes an in vitro SMZL diagnostic method based on analysis of the expression of a series of genes located in a very specific deleted region of human chromosome 7. The deleted region in SMZL patients has been defined by means of high-resolution array CGH and is located at 7q22.1 between bases 99925039-101754718, preferably between 99925039-101348479, and more preferably between 100260234-100596921 and/or 101244026-101754718, which is the location for the following genes: CUX1, SH2B2, EPHB4, SLC12A9, TRIP6, SRRT, ACHE, UFSP1, TRIM56, SERPINE1, APIS1, VGF, TSC22D4, HRBL, LRCH4, MUC3, MUC12 and MUC17. The present invention further describes in vitro SMZL diagnostic kits that comprise at least one probe that recognizes the deleted region at 7q22.1 or hybridizes with at least one of the nucleotide sequences of the genes mentioned above.
