ABSTRACT:
A method and reagents are provided for determining whether a human cell is a hemopoietic cell and whether a human tissue cell is in a neoplastic state. Human cells which express only leukocyte-plastin (l-plastin) are hemopoietic cells and human cells which express both l-plastin and tissue-plastin (t-plastin) are neoplastic. The method can be performed using isoform-specific plastin nucleotide probes or isoform-specific anti-plastin antibodies.
