A nucleotide sequence of a positive-sense strand of the sex reversal siRNA of the male Chinese mitten crab is shown in SEQ ID NO.1, and a nucleotide sequence of an antisense strand is shown in SEQ ID NO.2. according to the sex reversal siRNA, an IAG gene segment of the Chinese mitten crab is screened from an androgenic gland transcriptome of the Chinese mitten crab, the total-length cDNA sequence of the segment is cloned, according to an IAG gene sequence of the Chinese mitten crab, the siRNA is designed, synthesized and guided into a body of the Chinese mitten crab in the sex differentiation period, expression of an IAG gene in an androgenic gland cell is disturbed, and sex reversal of the male crab is achieved. Compared with androgenic gland removal through surgery, a micro-injection method is adopted and has the advantages that the trauma to the body of the Chinese mitten crab is small, and the situation is avoided that due to wound infection after surgery, the Chinese mittencrab dies; the injection dose is extremely low, the immunological stress reaction of a tested animal is not easily triggered, and accordingly the success rate of sex reversal is increased.

Methods of using EPHA2 for predicting activity of compounds that interact with and/or modulate protein tyrosine kinases and/or protein tyrosine kinase pathways in breast cells

The present invention describes polynucleotides that have been discovered to correlate to the relative sensitivity or resistance of cells, e.g., breast cell lines, to treatment with compounds that interact with and modulate, e.g., inhibit, protein tyrosine kinases, such as, for example, members of the Src family of tyrosine kinases, e.g., Src, Fgr, Fyn, Yes, Blk, Hck, Lck and Lyn, as well as other protein tyrosine kinases, including, Bcr-abl, Jak, PDGFR, c-kit and Eph receptors. These polynucleotides have been shown to have utility in predicting the resistance and sensitivity of breast cell lines to the compounds. Such polynucleotides comprise polynucleotide predictor or marker sets useful in methods of predicting drug response, and as prognostic or diagnostic indicators in disease management, particularly in those disease areas, e.g., breast cancer, in which signaling through one or more of the aforementioned Src tyrosine and protein tyrosine kinases is involved with the disease process.
