Abstract
The present invention provides a method for diagnosing of colorectal cancer in a subject and a method for determining risk of recurrence of colorectal cancer among colorectal cancer patients by detecting overexpression of the RNF6 gene, which in some cases is due to a higher than normal copy number of the genomic sequence of this gene. A kit and device useful for such methods are also provided. In addition, the present invention provides a method for treating colon cancer by suppressing RNF6 gene expression or activity.
