Abstract: |
The present invention provides methods of screening for colon carcinoma cells in a sample. The methods comprise providing a nucleic acid sample from a premalignant lesion in colorectal tissue from a human patient and contacting the sample with a nucleic acid probe that selectively hybridizes to a chromosomal region at 20q.

What is claimed is:
1. A method of screening for colon carcinoma precursor cells in a sample by determining the presence of increased copy number of chromosome 20q, the method comprising:
- providing a nucleic acid sample from a premalignant lesion in colorectal tissue from a human patient;
- contacting the sample with a nucleic acid probe that selectively hybridizes to a chromosomal region on 20q; and
- detecting the formation of a hybridization complex, whereby the presence of increased copy number on 20q indicates the presence of colon cancer precursor cells.
