ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to compositions for the diagnosis, prevention and treatment of tumor progression. Novel nucleic acid molecules are identified that are expressed at higher levels in benign (e.g., non-malignant) tumor cells compared to malignant tumor cells exhibiting a high metastatic potential. The nucleic acids and cells including these nucleic acids can be used diagnostically or for therapeutic intervention.
