CA 2394039

The present invention relates to novel colon related polynucleotides and the polypeptides encoded by these polynucleotides herein collectively known as "colon antigens", and the use of such colon antigens for detecting disorders of the colon, particularly the presence of colon cancer and colon cancer metastases. More specifically, isolated colon associated nucleic acid molecules are provided encoding novel colon associated polypeptides. Novel colon polypeptides and antibodies that bind to these polypeptides are provided. Also provided are vectors, host cells, and recombinant and synthetic methods for producing human colon associated polynucleotides and/or polypeptides. The invention further relates to diagnostic and therapeutic methods useful for diagnosing, treating, preventing and/or prognosing disorders related to the colon, including colon cancer, and therapeutic methods for treating such disorders. The invention further relates to screening methods for identifying agonists and antagonists of polynucleotides and polypeptides of the invention. The present invention further relates to methods and/or compositions for inhibiting the production and function of the polypeptides of the present invention.

La présente invention concerne de nouveaux polynucléotides liés au colon, et les polypeptides codés par ces polynucléotides connus ici sous la dénomination collective de "antigènes du colon", et l'utilisation d'antigènes du colon de ce type pour détecter des troubles liés au colon, en particulier la présence du cancer du colon et de métastases de cancer du colon. Plus spécifiquement, l'invention concerne des molécules d'acide nucléique isolées associées au colon, codant pour de nouveaux polypeptides associés au colon. Cette invention concerne également des polypeptides et anticorps du colon qui se lient à ces polypeptides; des vecteurs, des cellules hôtes, des procédés de recombinaison et de synthèse permettant de produire des polynucléotides et/ou polypeptides humains associés au colon; des procédés diagnostiques et thérapeutiques utiles pour le diagnostic, le traitement, la prévention et/ou la prévision de troubles liés au colon, y compris le cancer du colon, et des procédés de traitement de troubles de ce type; des procédés de criblage permettant d'identifier des agonistes et des antagonistes de polynucléotides et polypeptides de l'invention ; des procédés et/ou des compositions permettant d'inhiber la production et la fonctionnalité de polypeptides de la présente invention.
