Abstract

Provided are a composition for diagnosing cancer or screening an anticancer drug comprising an FLJ25416 gene or an antibody directed to a protein expressed from the FLJ25416 gene, a composition for treating cancer comprising an inhibitor of the gene or an inhibitor of the protein expressed from the gene and a pharmaceutically acceptable carrier, and a kit for diagnosing cancer comprising at least one of the FLJ25416 gene and the protein expressed from the FLJ25416 gene. The FLJ25416 gene is expressed at high level in specific cancer cells, and induces an increase in proliferation rate of normal cells. The expression of the gene is suppressed, which results in an inhibitory effect on cancer cell growth. Thus, the FLJ25416 gene can be used as a target gene for diagnosis or treatment of cancer.
