摘要:
The present invention relates to a method for in vitro detection of SIRS, sepsis and/or sepsis-like conditions. This method renders the evaluation of the severity and/or the therapeutic progress of sepsis and severe infections, in particular sepsis-like systemic infections possible. Further, the present invention relates to the use of recombinantly or synthetically prepared nucleic acid sequences or peptide sequences derived therefrom as calibrator in sepsis assays and/or for the evaluation of the effect and the toxicity during screening of the active agents and/or the preparation of therapeutics for the prevention and treatment of SIRS, sepsis, sepsis-like systemic inflammatory conditions and sepsis-like systemic infections.
摘要:
The application relates to the use of a nucleic acid and/or protein chip comprising probe nucleic acids and/or probe proteins, which are specific for cellular stress, inflammatory and immune reactions, associated with stress, inflammatory and immune reactions, induced during acute phase responses or any combination thereof and which are immobilised on a carrier for the diagnosis of sepsis or sepsis related syndrome.

摘要:
The invention relates to a method for separating and/or enriching prokaryotic DNA, comprising the following steps: a) contacting of at least one prokaryotic DNA that is in solution with a protein that bonds specifically to prokaryotic DNA, the protein being 25%-35% homologous with the wild-type CGPB protein, thus forming a protein-DNA complex; and b) separation of the complex. The invention also relates to a kit for carrying out said method.

摘要:
Compounds for determining the activity of phospholipase A2, are described herein, and include embodiments having formula (1) wherein L1 is derived from an ether (R1—OR2)m, wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected and are derived from a hydrocarbon having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, with m being an integer from 1 to 4, or from a hydrocarbon R having 1 to 20 carbon atoms; F is unsubstituted or substituted pyrene as a flouraphore; Q is a quencher, and L2 is C(O)-L1 or C(O)-L1-NH, wherein L1 is as defined above. These compounds may be used to determine the activity of phospholipase A2, in particular PAF-AH.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for the in vitro discrimination between systemic inflammatory non-infectious conditions and systemic inflammatory infectious conditions. The method comprises the following steps: a) sample RNA is isolated from a biological sample; b) the sample RNA and/or at least one DNA which represents a gene activity that is specific for distinguishing between SIRS and sepsis and/or a specific gene or gene fragment, is marked with a detectable marker; c) the sample RNA is brought in contact with the DNA in hybridization conditions; d) control RNA is brought in contact with at least one DNA in hybridization conditions, the DNA representing a gene or gene fragment that is specific for distinguishing between SIRS and sepsis; e) the marking signals of the hybridized sample RNA and control RNA are quantitatively recorded; and f) the quantitative data of the marking signals is compared in order to make a statement as to whether genes or gene fragments that are specific for distinguishing between SIRS and sepsis are expressed more prominently or less prominently in the sample than in the control RNA.

What is described are compounds of formula (1) wherein L1 is derived from an ether (R1—OR2)m, wherein R1 and R2 are independently selected and are derived from a hydrocarbon having 1 to 12 carbon atoms, with m being an integer from 1 to 4, or from a hydrocarbon R having 1 to 20 carbon atoms; F is unsubstituted or substituted pyrene as a fluorophore; Q is a quencher, and L2 is C(O)-L1 or C(O)-L1-NH, wherein L1 is as defined above. These compounds may be used to determine the activity of phospholipase A2, in particular PAF-AH.
摘要:
The invention relates to the use of gene expression profiles, obtained in vitro from a patient sample, for the generation of criteria for the prediction of an individual course of disease in sepsis. The invention is further of use for determining the probability of survival in sepsis, the assessment of the course of disease in sepsis during treatment and for the classification of sepsis patients.
