Open the CIPO recordAbstract From the Canadian patent
Nucleic acid probes reactive with regions of neu proto-oncogenes and/or oncogenes of mammalian origin are described, as are methods for their use in detecting the presence of neu proto-oncogenes and/or oncogenes in tumor cells. Antibodies specific for gene products encoded by the neu genes are also described. The nucleic acid probes and antibodies can be used to assess point mutational activation, amplification and overexpression of the neu genes and thus are useful in the diagnosis and prognosis of certain cancers.
