Abstract:
Briefly described, methods of detecting a phosphorylated mitogen activated protein kinase (P-MAPK), methods of diagnosing cancer, kits for detecting P-MAPK, and kits for diagnosing cancer, are disclosed. One exemplary kit, among others, includes a composition including an antibody that bonds to a phosphorylated mitogen activated protein kinase (P-MAPK) or a variant thereof to form a detectable complex; and a set of printed instructions specifying, in order of implementation, steps to be followed for detecting the P-MAPK or a variant thereof by detecting the complex. The composition and the printed instructions are in packaged combination.
