Diagnosis or prognosis of lung cancer and colorectal cancer based on expression level of glutaredoxin 3

摘要

The present invention relates to a biomarker for diagnosing lung cancer and colorectal cancer containing glutaredoxin 3 as an active ingredient, and a kit for diagnosing lung cancer and colorectal cancer using the same biomarker. Glutaredoxin 3 of the present invention is over-expressed in lung cancer tissue and colorectal cancer tissue, which enables early prediction of diagnosis or prognosis of lung cancer and colorectal cancer. Thus, glutaredoxin 3 can be helpfully used as a biomarker for diagnosing lung cancer and colorectal cancer.
