摘要:
DNAs encoding human voltage gated sodium channel β1A subunit have been cloned and characterized. The recombinant protein is capable of forming biologically active protein. The cDNA's have been expressed in recombinant host cells that produce active recombinant protein. The recombinant protein is also purified from the recombinant host cells. In addition, the recombinant host cells are utilized to establish a method for identifying modulators of the receptor activity, and receptor modulators are identified.
摘要:
A biomarker that correlates to treatment with drugs that inhibit chymase is disclosed. This biomarker has been shown to have utility in assessing response to chymase inhibitor compounds. The immunoreactivity or levels of the biomarker is increased upon treatment with chymase inhibitor compounds, thus indicating that this biomarker is involved in chymase activity.
摘要:
It is now discovered that human chymase cleaves human SLPI at a specific site and that this cleavage can be used as an indicator of chymase activity. The present invention provides methods of diagnosing a chymase-associated disease or evaluating the efficiency of a treatment of a chymase-associated disease in a human subject by measuring SLPI processing, as well as other related methods and compositions.

Pretreating a tissue sample with an effective amount of collagenase results in increased immunodetection of collagen and enhanced preservation of tissue morphology. Such an improved method for immunodetection of collagen can be used in immunohistochemical studies of formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections.
