摘要:
There is provided a method of determining whether a subject belongs to a first or a second group of subjects, wherein the risk of having or developing of a renal impairment is higher in the first group than in the second group, comprising the steps of: a) measuring an amount of fibulin 1 in a sample from the subject to obtain a sample value; b) comparing the sample value to a reference value; and if the sample value is higher than the reference value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if the sample value is lower than the reference value, c2) concluding that the subject belongs to the second group, wherein the sample is an optionally modified sample derived from urine or blood, such as an optionally diluted serum or plasma sample. Associated means are also provided.

摘要:
Enzymes or catalytic fragments thereof reversibly inactivated by attachment to an immobilizing moiety which may comprise a magnetic particle are activated by release from the immobilizing moiety. The enzyme or fragment may be in the form of a fusion protein that is attached to the immobilizing moiety via a pair of affinity binding partners such that the enzyme or fragment is reversibly inactivated, and release of the fusion protein from the immobilizing moiety activates the enzyme or fragment. Enzymes include DNA polymerases, DNA ligases, Reverse transcriptases and RNA polymerases. The enzyme or fragment may be thermostable, and the fusion protein can be bound to the immobilizing moiety via a heat-labile linkage. Activation of the reversibly inactivated immobilized enzyme or fragment has particular utility in PCR and analogous nucleic acid amplification techniques. A sample containing a nucleic acid is contacted with the immobilized fusion protein, and release of the fusion protein activates the enzyme or fragment to start a first cycle of an amplification reaction. Amplification reactions that may be carried out include Ligase chain reaction (LCR), Self-sustained Sequence Replication (3SR), Reverse transcriptase PCR (RT-PCR), Q-beta replicase amplification reaction and nucleic acid sequence-based amplification (NASBA). Kits for the amplifications may be prepared containing an appropriate reversibly immobilized enzyme in the form of a fusion protein, and primers and/or probe for performing the amplification.

摘要:
There is provided a method for determining whether a mammalian subject having an ovarian cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group, comprising the steps of: a) evaluating an amount of RBM3 protein in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; b) comparing said sample value with a predetermined refer-ence value; and if said sample value is higher than said ref-erence value, c1) concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, c2) concluding that the sub-ject belongs to the second group. Related peptides, affinity ligands, uses and further methods are also provided.
摘要:
The present invention relates to modified polypeptide derivatives of the B domain or Z domain of staphylococcal protein A (SPA). The derivatives contain amino acid substitutions that result in the ability of the B domain or Z domain to interact with at least one domain of a human Factor VIII protein, without substantially disrupting the structure and stability of the B domain or Z domain.
摘要:
The present invention provides means, such as a method, for determining whether a mammalian subject having a colorectal cancer belongs to a first or a second group, wherein the prognosis of subjects of the first group is better than the prognosis of subjects of the second group. The method comprises the steps of: evaluating an amount of RBM3 protein or RBM3 mRNA molecule in at least part of a sample earlier obtained from the subject and determining a sample value corresponding to the evaluated amount; comparing said sample value with a predetermined reference value; andif said sample value is higher than said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the first group; and if said sample value is lower than or equal to said reference value, concluding that the subject belongs to the second group.

摘要:
In the present disclosure, there is provided a method for improving the immunodetectability of at least one protein in an optionally diluted sample of blood, serum or plasma, comprising a step of heating the sample to a temperature of 64-85° C. prior to a contact between the sample and at least one affinity ligand for detection and/or quantification of the at least one protein.
