摘要:
Nucleotide sequences encoding novel splice variants of peripherin and neurofilament light protein, proteins encoded by the novel splice variants and antibodies thereto are disclosed. In addition, methods are described for detecting ALS in a subject suspected of having ALS, comprising detecting the presence or absence of the novel splice variants or resulting proteins or a change in the amount of the novel splice variants or resulting proteins; wherein the presence or change in the amount of the nucleotide sequence is indicative of ALS.
摘要:
The invention has disclosed a method for diagnosis of dentinogenesis imperfecta type II (DGI-II) and/or dentinogenesis imperfecta type II with deafness (DGI-II with deafness). Said method comprises the steps of detecting the DSPP gene, transcript and/or protein in said subject and comparing it with the normal DSPP gene, transcript and/or protein to determine whether there is any variation, wherein said variation indicates that the possibility of suffering DGI-II and/or DGI-II with deafness in said subject is higher than the normal population. The present invention also discloses the method and pharmaceutical composition for treating DGI-II and/or DGI-II with deafness.
