摘要:
Monoclonal antibodies recognizing the difucosyl-type-2-H antigen on human cells and a method of producing said antibodies are disclosed. The monoclonal antibodies are useful in blood typing and in diagnosis of blood disorders and malignancies involving loss or gain of this H antigen.
摘要:
The invention relates to the method for evaluating the potential of a chemical entity, such as an antibody, to bind to a peptide epitope derived from the divalent sialoside binding site of hemagglutinin protein of influenza virus. The invention also provides peptide epitopes for use in the prevention and/or treatment of influenza or for the development of such treatment or vaccine against influenza.
摘要:
A second-step virus binding receptor is found in nature on the surface of animal and plant cells. This receptor is thought to be needed for virus penetration into target cells. The second-step receptor has been found to bind a wide variety of viruses belonging to a number of different families. The second-step receptor and natural or synthetic substances which correspond to or are analogous to the binding epitope of the second-step receptor in that they are able to bind to a site on the virus which recognizes the binding epitope of the natural second-step receptor, are therefore indicated for the diagnosis, prophylaxis or treatment of viral infections.
摘要:
The present invention describes oligosaccharide sequences, which are specifically expressed by human tumors. The present invention is related to a method of determining an oligosaccharide sequence, which comprises a tumor specific terminal N-acetylglucosamine residue, in a biological sample, the presence of said sequence in said sample being an indication of the presence of cancer. The present invention provides antigenic substances comprising said oligosaccharide sequences in a polyvalent form and it further provides diagnostic agents, pharmaceutical compositions and cancer vaccines comprising said oligosaccharide sequences or substances binding to said oligosaccharide sequences. The present invention is also related to methods for the treatment of cancer.
摘要:
The present application describes a binding epitope to Helicobacter pylori, namely substances comprising the oligosaccharide sequence -Gal(Nac)r2$g(b)4Glc(A)q2(Nac)r3-, and the use thereof in pharmaceutical and nutritional compositions for the treatment of conditions due to the presence of Helicobacter pylori in a subject, e.g. gastritis, gastric ulcers, gastric adenocarcinoma, liver disease, pancreatic disease, skin disease, heart disease, autoimmune diseases and sudden infant death syndrome. The invention is also directed to the use of the receptor for diagnostics of Helicobacter pylori, to a method of producing chondroitin oligosaccharides from chondroitin sulphates, and a method for production of amidated glucuronic acid comprising oligosaccharides and monosaccharides from glucuronic acid comprising polysaccharides.
