Methods for diagnosing cancer, such as prostate, ovarian or breast cancer, as well as leukemia, are provided. Such methods may employ binding agents, such as antibodies or CAR sequences of OB-cadherin or N-cadherin, that specifically bind to OB-cadherin or N-cadherin, or polynucleotides that hybridize to a polynucleotide encoding OB-cadherin or N-cadherin. Also provided are methods for monitoring the progression of a cancer and to evaluate the metastatic potential of a cancer.

Des méthodes pour diagnostiquer le cancer de cancer, tel que la prostate, ovarien ou de sein, aussi bien que la leucémie, sont fournies. De telles méthodes peuvent utiliser les lieurs, tels que des anticorps ou des ordres de VOITURE d'OB-cadherin ou N-cadherin, qui lient spécifiquement à OB-cadherin ou N-cadherin, ou polynucleotides qui hybrident à un polynucleotide codant OB-cadherin ou N-cadherin. En outre fournies sont des méthodes pour surveiller la progression d'un cancer et pour évaluer le potentiel metastatic d'un cancer.
