ABSTRACT:
This invention relates to primers for diagnosis of one or more kinds of cancer and a diagnostic kit comprising said primers. The primers are made from highly homologous areas of twelve MAGE subtypes and eight GAGE subtypes. The diagnostic kit comprising the said primers can detect six MAGE subtypes and eight GAGE subtypes respectively.
