摘要:
The present invention is directed to developing a glycan markers capable of detecting a hepatic disease, and more specifically to developing a glycan marker indicating a hepatic disease-state. Furthermore, the present invention is also directed to developing a glycan marker capable of distinguishing hepatic disease-states with the progress of hepatocarcinoma. The present inventors identified, among the serum glycoproteins, glycopeptides and glycoproteins in which a glycan structure specifically changes due to a hepatic diseases including hepatocarcinoma and provide these as novel glycan markers (glycopeptide and glycoprotein) specific to hepatic disease-states.

The purpose of the present invention is to develop: a method for selectively separating a glycoprotein derived from the central nervous system from a body fluid or a central nervous system cell; and a method for searching for an index marker for central nervous system diseases, which utilizes the aforementioned method. A protein derived from the central nervous system, which occurs in a trace amount in a body fluid or a central nervous system cell, can be selectively enriched by a two-stage separation procedure comprising removing a glycoprotein having sialic acid at a non-reducing terminal thereof from the body fluid or the central nervous system cell and then separating a glycoprotein having N-acetylglucosamine at a non-reducing terminal thereof.

An analyzer of the present invention for analyzing a glycan or a complex glycan includes a substrate, a fluorescent labeling excitation means and a fluorescent intensity measurement means. The substrate comprises a rectangle photoconductive base plate coated by a compound containing an active group to fix protein by an amino group thereof, one and more open-topped reaction vessel formed on a surface of the base plate, and plural spots of glycan binding proteins arranged in a matrix and immobilized on the surface of the base plate in the reaction vessel. The fluorescent labeling excitation means which excites fluorescent label by generating evanescent-waves on the surface of the substrate comprises a pair of optical fibers arranged toward the both side end faces of the right and left of the substrate to introduce a light thereinto.

摘要:
As a result of investigating the optimum conditions of methods for immobilizing proteins that interact with sugar chains onto a substrate, it was revealed that coating the surface of a slide glass with GTMS enables immobilization at a higher S/N ratio than conventionally possible. Moreover, by using a substrate to which a rubber with a number of holes was affixed to form a number of reaction vessels, and further by spotting lectins onto the substrate and washing with PBST, the weak interactions between sugar chains and lectins were successfully detected with improved sensitivity. In addition, by introducing an evanescent excitation-type scanner, it became possible to detect the interactions between lectins and sugar chains without washing away the probe solution.

The invention relates to compounds for treatment of hypertension, and cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, which compounds are of the formula: ##STR1## wherein R.sup.1 is piperazinyl(lower)alkyl, carbamoyl substituted with piperazinyl(lower)alkyl, or piperazinylcarbonyl, in each of which a piperazinyl group may be substituted with lower alkyl, andR.sup.3 is hydrogen or halogen;R.sup.2 is phenyl substituted with nitro, andR.sup.4 is lower alkyl or halo(lower)alkyl; orR.sup.2 is lower alkyl, andR.sup.4 is phenyl substitured with nitro;and a pharmaceutically acceptable salt thereof.
摘要:
An object of the present invention is to develop and provide a lung cancer differential marker with which lung cancer can be diagnosed conveniently and highly sensitively without depending only on increase or decrease in protein expression level between cancer patients and healthy persons. Another object of the present invention is to develop and provide a glycan marker capable of distinguishing histological types of lung cancer. Of serum glycoproteins, glycopeptide and glycoprotein groups whose glycan structures were altered specifically in lung cancer cell culture supernatants were identified, and they are provided as lung cancer differential markers.
