Abstract
This invention is intended to provide a method capable of diagnosis of pancreatic tumor type at an early stage. More specifically, this invention relates to an examination method for determining pancreatic tumor type comprising detecting the degree of methylation in a 5′-untranslated region or a region comprising a 5′-untranslated region and a translated region of a gene encoding a mucin core protein in a pancreatic fluid sample from a subject, and identifying the pancreatic tumor as being of pancreatic tumor type selected from the group consisting of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma, an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the gastric type, an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the intestinal type, and an intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasm of the pancreatobiliary type using the degree of methylation as an index value.
