Method for obtaining information on colorectal cancer, and marker and kit for obtaining information on colorectal cancer

摘要

The present invention is to provide a method for obtaining information on colon cancer in a subject by using a novel marker specific for colon cancer, analyzing the methylation status of DNA extracted from a biological sample of the subject and obtaining information on colon cancer in the subject based on the analysis result. The above object is achieved by analyzing the methylation status of a CpG site located in a promoter region of at least one gene selected from LONRF2 and CUX2 in DNA extracted from the biological sample of the subject and obtaining information on colon cancer in the subject based on the analysis result.
