"Method for the in vitro diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis"
A set of genes that are expressed differentially in normal and NASH-predisposed liver, thus constituting the genomic signature of NASH is provided. The set of genes can be used to discriminate between normal and NASH-predisposed liver tissues. Accordingly, diagnostic assays for classification of pathological grades, prediction of the pathology outcome, selecting and monitoring treatment regimens and monitoring disease progression/regression are provided.

"SP1 as a marker in diagnosis and prognosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH) and target in drug screening for NASH"
The patent refers to in vitro diagnosis of non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (NASH); more specifically to the early diagnosis of NASH and/or to the predisposition of a subject to develop NASH or to confirm the disease, based on an over-expression of phosphorylated Sp1 transcription factor in liver cells. The patent also refers to determine the stage or severity of said disease in an individual, or to monitor the effect of therapy administered to an individual with NASH. Additionally, it does screen, seek, identify, develop and evaluate the efficacy of compounds for the prevention and/or treatment of NASH in an attempt to develop new medicinal products as well as agents that inhibit the expression and/or activity of Sp1 in liver, and/or the effects of its expression.
