Abstract
Provided are a composition, a kit, and a method of predicting prognosis of ovarian cancer or a risk of recurrence of ovarian cancer. Provided are a composition for treating ovarian cancer or preventing recurrence of ovarian cancer and a method of screening a material for treating ovarian cancer or preventing recurrence of ovarian cancer. According to the present disclosure, prognosis or recurrence of ovarian cancer can be efficiently diagnosed, and a candidate material that can treat ovarian cancer or prevent recurrence of ovarian cancer can be efficiently screened.
Claims1
A method of detecting VAV3, FOXA2, LEF1, WNT-3A, and PPY proteins or at least five mRNAs encoding these proteins in ovarian cells, the method comprising:
- forming complexes with at least five materials specifically binding with the VAV3, FOXA2, LEF1, WNT3A and PPY proteins or at least five mRNA encoding these proteins with a sample comprising ovarian cells;
- and
- detecting the complexes.
Dependencies are inferred from the claim text.
