摘要:
In certain human tumor cells, the gene encoding MDM2 protein is amplified and expression of MDM2 protein is elevated. Since human MDM2 protein binds to human p53, excess MDM2 protein apparently releases a cell from p53-regulated growth. Detection of elevated amounts of human MDM2 protein thus can be used to diagnose neoplastic disease in a human.

Antibodies directed to human protein mismatch repair proteins can be used diagnostically to discriminate between proliferating and non-proliferating cells. In addition, they can be used to determine whether cells have a mismatch repair defect caused by a mutation in e.g., hMSH2, hMLH1, or hPMS2. They can also be used to monitor the efficacy of anti-neoplastic therapies.
摘要:
A human gene has been discovered which is genetically altered in human tumor cells. The genetic alteration is gene amplification and leads to a corresponding increase in gene products. Detecting that the gene, designated hMDM2, has become amplified or detecting increased expression of gene products is diagnostic of tumorigenesis. Human MDM2 protein binds to human p53 and allows the cell to escape from p53-regulated growth.

摘要:
Antibodies and assays employing them are taught which are useful for detecting the bulk of mutations which occur in the APC gene in familial adenomatous polyposis. The antibodies are specific for epitopes in the amino terminal or carboxy terminal portion of the protein. A variety of immunoassay formats are described which are all based on the observation that the bulk of the APC mutations which occur in familial adenomatous polyposis and sporadic colorectal carcinomas result in truncated APC proteins. Generally, either the size of APC proteins is determined or the relative binding of amino terminal-binding antibodies to carboxy terminal-binding antibodies is determined.
摘要:
A carpet care tool beautifies, fluffs and cleans carpet fibers by brushing its relatively short, densely disposed and uniformly slanted filaments against the carpet fibers in one direction as the tool is drawn in a sweeping stroke in pressing engagement with the carpet. Pushing the tool in the opposite direction while pressed against the carpet quickly dislodges the entrapped foreign matter such as lint, hairs, threads and dust particles so they can be quite easily picked up and discarded. The specially contoured brushing head, together with its resilient padding arrangement to give uniform deflection over the entire working surface of the head, plus trilobed slanted filaments of the brush fabric itself, all cooperate to provide a well-groomed, beautifully finished carpet appearance not possible with mere vacuuming techniques.
