摘要: The invention relates to materials and methods for diagnosing liver tumor types, and assessing patient prognosis. Specifically, but not exclusively, the invention concerns the determination of marker protein which enable primary liver tumors to be identified and classified according to the latest WHO classification. Particularly, the invention provides potential markers proteins which allow non-neoplastic and neoplastic hepatocytes and biliary epithelial cells to be distinguished. This allows grading of tumor differentiation to be refined and differential diagnosis of primary liver tumors and pathogenesis of sub-types of cholangiocarcinoma.

摘要: The invention relates to panels of biomarkers including proteins phosphatase 1 regulatory subunit 14A and/or 2′,3′-cyclic-nucleotide 3′-phosphodiesterase and/or phosphorylated tau or fragments thereof and methods using thereof for diagnosing, staging, treating and assessing the response of a treatment for a neurocognitive disorder characterised by tau toxicity, in particular for Alzheimer's disease. The present invention shows that the biomarkers disclosed herein are elevated in the brain of subjects with an advanced stage of a neurocognitive disorder (Braak stage V/VI) and/or are regulated in the CSF of AD subjects in comparison to cognitively affected non-AD controls; and/or regulated in response to two casein kinase 1 delta inhibitors.

摘要: Alzheimer's disease, the most common cause of dementia in older individuals, is a debilitating neurodegenerative disease for which there is currently no cure. In the past, AD could only be definitively diagnosed by brain biopsy or upon autopsy after a patient died. These methods, which demonstrate the presence of the characteristic plaque and tangle lesions in the brain, are still considered the gold standard for the pathological diagnoses of AD. However, in the clinical setting brain biopsy is rarely performed and diagnosis depends on a battery of neurological, psychometric and biochemical tests, including the measurement of biochemical markers such as the ApoE and tau proteins or the beta-amyloid peptide in cerebrospinal fluid and blood. The present invention discloses and describes panels of makers that are differentially expressed in the disease state relative to their expression in the normal state and, in particular, identifies and describes panels of makers associated with neurocognitive disorders. Such biomarker panel might have considerable value in triaging patients with early memory disorders to yet more specific but more invasive and costly approaches such as molecular markers in CSF and on PET imaging in clinical trials and possibly in clinical practice.

摘要: The present invention provides a method for diagnosing or assessing a neurodegenerative disease in a test subject, comprising: (i) providing a protein-containing sample that has been obtained from the test subject; (ii) determining the concentration, amount or degree of expression of at least one specific protein isoform and/or glycoform derived from a protein biomarker selected from the group consisting of: clusterin precursor; apolipoprotein A-IV precursor; apolipoprotein C-III precursor; transthyretin; galectin 7; complement C4 precursor; alpha-2-macroglobulin precursor; Ig alpha-1 chain C; histone 2B; Ig lambda chain C region; fibrinogen gamma chain precursor; complement factor H; inter-alpha-trypsin heavy chain H4 precursor; complement C3 precursor; gamma or beta actin; haptoglobin precursor; and the serum albumin precursor, or a fragment thereof; (iii) comparing said concentration, amount or degree determined in (ii) with a reference from a control subject with a specific neurodegenerative disease, dementia or stage of disease, or from a control subject that does not have a neurogenerative disease or dementia; and (iv) based on the level of the at least one specific protein isoform and/or glycoform of the protein biomarker in the test subject relative to the reference, making a diagnosis or assessment as to the presence of and/or stage of neurodegenerative disease or dementia of the test subject. Also provided are related products and systems for use in such a method.
