Abstract
The present invention is directed to a method for diagnosing inflammatory diseases based on the marker CALGRANULIN C, particularly for diagnosing specific stages of inflammatory diseases and/or for determining the risk of relapse and/or for discriminating between diseases with similar symptoms, said method comprising the steps of (a) obtaining a biological sample of mammalian body fluid or tissue to be diagnosed; (b) determining the amount and/or concentration of CALGRANULIN C polypeptide and/or nucleic acids encoding the polypeptide present in said biological sample; and (c) comparing the amount and/or concentration of CALGRANULIN C polypeptide determine in said biological sample with the amount and/or concentration of CALGRANULIN C polypeptide as determined in a control sample and/or comparing the amount and/or concentration of nucleic acids encoding CALGRANULIN C polypeptide determined in said biological sample with the amount and/or concentration of nucleic acids encoding CALGRANULIN C polypeptides measured in a control sample, wherein the difference in the amount of CALGRANULIN C polypeptide and/or nucleic acids encoding the polypeptide is indicative for the stages of the disease to be diagnosed.
