Abstract
The present invention concerns new compositions and methods for the detection of pathological events. It more specifically concerns methods for the detection in vitro of the presence of a pathology or a pathological event in a subject, comprising taking a sample of blood cells from the subject and determining, in this sample, the presence of blood cells presenting a physiological state characteristic of the pathology. The invention also concerns the tools, kits and compositions for the implementation of such methods, as well as their uses in the field of human and animal health, or in experimental research for example.
