    Abstract: The invention features methods for detecting prostate cancer, especially hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) or castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), by detecting over-expression of PKIB or NAALADL2 compared the normal organs. Also disclosed are methods of identifying compounds for treating and preventing prostate cancer including HRPC, based on the over-expression of PKIB or NAALADL2 in the prostate cancer, the cell proliferation function of PKIB or NAALADL2, the intracellular localization of PKIB or NAALADL2 or the interaction between PKIB and PKA-C. Also, provided are a method for treating prostate cancer by administering a double-stranded molecule against the PKIB or NAALADL2 gene. The invention also provides products, including the double-stranded molecules and vectors encoding them, as well as compositions comprising the molecules or vectors, useful in the provided methods.

    Abstract: Objective methods for detecting and diagnosing prostate cancer (PRC) or prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (PIN) are described herein. In one embodiment, the diagnostic method involves the determining a expression leve l of PRC -associated gene that discriminate between PRC or PIN and nomal cell. The present invention further provides methods of screening for therapeutic agents useful in the treatment of either or both of PRC and PIN, methods of treating either or both of PRC and PIN and method of vaccinating a subject against either or both of PRC and PIN.

    Abstract: REG4, a new member of REG family was identified as a biomarker of pancreatic adenocarcinoma. The present invention provides sandwich ELISA to detect serum REG4 in patients with resectable pancreatic cancers i.e. PDACs. The present invention also provides a method for diagnosing a pancreatic cancer using REG4 as a serological marker.

    Abstract: The invention features a method for inhibiting growth of a cancer cell by contacting the cell with a composition of an siRNA that inhibits expression of REG4 or KIAA0101. Methods of treating cancer are also within the inventi on. The invention also features products, including nucleic acid sequences a nd vectors as well as to compositions comprising them, useful in the provide d methods. The invention also provides a method for inhibiting of tumor cell , for example pancreatic cancer cell, prostatic cancer cell, breast cancer c ell, and bladder cancer cell, particularly pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) by inhibiting REG4 gene. The present invention also relates to method s of treating or preventing PDAC in a subject comprising the step of adminis tering to said subject a pharmaceutically effective amount of an antibody or fragment thereof that binds to a protein encoded by REG4. The present inven tion also relates to methods of diagnosing chemo-radiation therapeutic resis tance of a cancer. The present invention also provides therapeutic agents or methods for treating cancer using the polypeptides. The polypeptides of the present invention are composed of an amino acid sequence which comprises po lypeptide which comprises QKGIGEFF/SEQ ID NO: 21. The polypeptides of the pr esent invention can be introduced into cancer cells by modifying the polypep tides with transfection agents such as poly-arginine.
