methods for detecting solid cancer cells and histological heterotypien and procedures for examining tissue for bone marrow transplantation and transplantation of peripheral blutstammzellen

摘要

The invention provides a method of detecting solid cancer cells which comprises determining the level of expression of WT1 gene in a test tissue, a method of detecting the atypia of a tissue which comprises determining the level of expression of WT1 gene in the tissue, and a method of testing a graft material tissue for bone marrow or peripheral blood stem cell transplantation which comprises determining the level of expression of WT1 gene in a CD34- cell fraction of the tissue to detect leukemic cells and solid cancer cells in the tissue.
