Abstract

The present invention relates to a more accurate method of diagnosing cancer in a tissue or a cell by measuring the expression and activity of cell cycle related proteins and analyzing a cell cycle profile. In a cell cycle profile, at least two values of expression or activity of cell cycle related proteins are concurrently measured. The measurement of the cell cycle related protein is not limited as to the measurement method.
