Biomarker and method for evaluating risk of proliferation, invasion, or metastasis of cancer
The present invention relates to a biomarker associated with a cancer and a method using the biomarker to evaluate a risk of proliferation, invasion, or metastasis of a cancer. The method of the present invention comprises the following steps: (A) providing a tissue sample to evaluate for risk of proliferation, invasion, or metastasis of a cancer, wherein the tissue sample comprises a non-cancer region, and a suspected cancer region; (B) detecting expression levels of a biomarker and a predetermined standard in the non-cancer region and the suspected cancer region respectively, wherein the biomarker is T-cell lymphoma invasion and metastasis 2 (TIAM2); (C) comparing the expression levels of the biomarker and the predetermined standard in the non-cancer region to the expression levels of the biomarker and the predetermined standard in the suspected cancer region.
