摘要:
The objects of this invention are to prevent or ameliorate hypertension to improve physical constitution and finally to provide feeds, drinks, foods, health food supplements and pharmaceuticals which may be led to the prophylaxis or amelioration of life style related diseases. A prophylactic or ameliorating agent of hypertension comprising conjugated fatty acids (e.g., conjugated linoleic acid) as effective ingredients. A feed, food and drink, and health food supplement comprising the conjugated fatty acids described above. A pharmaceutical comprising the conjugated fatty acids described above. A method for prophylactic or ameliorating of hypertension in a mammal, which comprises administering to the mammal an effective amount of a conjugated fatty acid for preventing or ameliorating of hypertension in the mammal. Use of a conjugated fatty acid for preparing a pharmaceutical for prophylactic or ameliorating of hypertension.
摘要:
A hybridoma capable of procuding a monoclonal antibody specific to a sialic acid containing glycolipid carrying N-acetylneuraminic acid residue having alpha 2--→ 3 linkage is herein disclosed. The hybridoma can be generated by fusing (i) B cells or lymphocytes obtained by immunizing an animal with a sialic acid containing glycolipid carrying N-acetylneuraminic acid residue having alpha 2--→ 3 linkage and (ii) myeloma cells. The monoclonal antibody produced by the hybridoma can be used for purifying gangliosides, for treating patients suffering from melanoma and for diagnosing sera.
摘要:
Hybridomas producing monoclonal antibodies suitable for imaging and diagnosis of human breast tumors and such monoclonal antibodies are claimed. The monoclonals are characterized by breast tumor binding range, breast cancer cell line range, and selectively. immunoimaging agents comprising the monoclonal antibody and a detectable label, either directly or indirectly conjugated to the antibody are claimed. Methods for imaging breat tumors using the immunoimaging agents are described and claimed.
摘要:
Immunotoxins comprising a cytotoxic moiety and monoclonal antibodies which bind to human ovarian cancer tissue having at least one of the following capabilities are claimed: cytotoxic ID 50 of 10 nM or less against human ovarian cancer cells, retardation of human ovarian cancer tumor growth in mammals or extension of survival of a mammal carrying a human ovarian cancer tumor. Antigens to which the monoclonal antibody of the immunotoxin bind are identified and characterize the immunotoxins. Methods of killing human ovarian cancer cells, retarding the growth of human ovarian cancer tumors in mammals or extending the survival of mammals carrying human ovarian cancer tumors are claimed.

摘要:
Antibodies which contain reduced surfhydryl groups in proximity to the carboxyl terminal end of their heavy chain are coupled to another moiety which has an available sulfhydryl for forming a disulfide bond with the antibodies. IgM is a typical antibody which contains a suitable structure by virtue of its cysteine residue in proximity to the carboxyl terminal end of its heavy chain. A typical hybrid is formed with IgM and the A chain of a toxin such as ricin by the formation of a covalent disulfide bond therebetween. Use of antibodies having structures such as IgM result in hybrid formation in which the moiety joined to the antibody is site directed with respect to its bonding location on the antibody. Such hybrids have utility including in vivo therapeutic applications in which the functionality of the antibody is not deleteriously impaired by the moiety bonded thereto.
