    Abstract: A cancer recognition factor (SCM factor) useful in the performance of the structuredness of the cytoplasmic matrix (SCM) test has been isolated, purified to substantial homogeneity, and characterized, and methods for its use have been described. The factor is a peptide of at least 9 amino acid residues including a core sequence of 9 amino acid residues having an amphipathicity profile substantially equivalent to that of the sequence F-L-M-I-D-Q-N-T-K and produces at least a 10 percent decrease in the intracellular fluorescence polarization value of SCM-responding lymphocytes from donors afflicted with cancer. A synthetic SCM factor representing a consensus sequence of M-I-P-P-E-V-K-F-N-K-P-F-V-F-L-M-I-D-Q-N-T-K-V-P-L-F-M-G-K is fully active. Antibodies specific for SCM factor are useful in immunoassays that can detect the factor, including detection in cancer cells grown in vitro. The SCM factor is useful for screening of blood samples and other body fluids or cell aspirates for the presence of malignancy in the donor. The multiple action spectrum of the SCM factor including cancer proliferation and invasion promotion, as well as inhibition of the host's immune defense mechanisms and synthesis of SCM factor by cancer cells, represents a novel target for cancer management. Methods for reducing in vivo activity of the SCM factor, such as dialysis or antibody neutralization, can also be useful in the management of cancer.

    Abstract: The present invention relates to an anti-idiotypic monoclonal antibody raised against a mouse monoclonal antibody or fragments thereof specific to at least one diarrhetic shellfish poisoning toxin selected from the group consisting of okadaic acid and derivatives thereof. The anti-idiotypic antibody is characterized by reacting only with antibodies to okadaic acid and derivatives thereof but not with antibodies directed against any other compounds. The anti-idiotypic antibody is further characterized by being an internal image of okadaic acid and derivatives thereof. A hybridoma producing an anti-idiotypic antibody in accordance with the present invention has been deposited at the ATCC under accession number HB 10768. Competitive solid-phase assays for determining the amount of okadaic acid and derivatives thereof in marine samples are also provided in accordance with the present invention. The present invention also relates to a kit for determining the amount of okadaic acid and derivatives thereof in marine samples.

    Abstract: A new and useful fluorescent chromophore has been isolated and identified which has been observed in proteins exposed to glucose over time, and whose fluorescent properties closely resemble those of the polypeptide after it undergoes advanced glycosylation. The chromophore has been structurally identified and named 2-furoyl-4(5)-(2-furanyl)-1H-imidazole, and is believed to be one of the end products of extended nonenzymatic polypeptide glycosylation, which results in the state known as nonenzymatic browning (NEB). The measurement of this chromophore makes possible both qualitative and quantitative assessment of the degree of aging. Diagnostic and test kits are also disclosed.
