摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for determining or predicting the progression of chronic kidney disease in a subject suspected of having chronic kidney disease, comprising determining the expression levels of at least one marker selected from (a) FGF23; and (b) adiponectin in a biological sample. Furthermore, the present invention relates to a use of a specific detection molecule for FGF23 or adiponectin for the preparation of a diagnostic composition for the detection of chronic kidney disease or the progression of chronic kidney diseases in a subject suspected to suffer from said disease. In particular, the present invention also provides for use of FGF23 and/or of adiponectin as an in vitro marker for the presence, absence or progression of a chronic kidney disease and kits comprising a specific detection molecule for FGF23 or a specific detection molecule for adiponectin for use in the method of the present invention.

摘要:
An in-vitro process for the quick determination of the infection status of a Mycobacterium tuberculosis infection from whole blood in terms of active or latent tuberculosis, comprising the steps of: stimulating an antigen-specific T cell that is present in a first sample of whole blood with purified protein derivative (PPD) in the presence of antibodies against CD28, or CD28 and CD49d; processing of PPD by antigen-presenting cells (APC) by incubating for 1.5 h to 2.5 h, especially for 2 h, at 35° C. to 39° C., especially at 37° C., optionally with adding CO2; then adding a secretion inhibitor; effecting an intensive mixing; and another incubation for a period of at least 2.5 h at a temperature of from 35° C. to 39° C., and determining a cytokine profile from both the intracellular INF-γ production and the intracellular IL-2 production of the antigen-specific T cell; wherein the presence of an active tuberculosis is indicated by a shift of the cytokine profile towards IFN-γ single positive cells accompanied by a decrease of IFN-γ/IL-2 double positive T cells.
