摘要:
The invention provides assay methods for the detection and quantitation of gastrin hormones, including total and free gastrin hormone in a sample. ELISA-type heterogeneous phase assays suitable for use with biological fluid samples such as blood, plasma or other bodily fluids of a mammal, particularly a human subject are provided. The method provides a precise assay for the amounts of free and total G17 and G34 in biological fluid samples, as well as the amounts of free and total Gly-extended G17, and Gly-extended G34. Also provided are methods of determining suitable treatment for patient suffering from a gastrin hormone-mediated disease or condition employing gastrin hormone immunoassays.

Vaccine compositions comprising influenza antigens formulated as nanoparticulate water in oil miniemulsions. The vaccines may be formulated at the point of use and are useful in emergency response conditions.
摘要:
The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies (MAbs) selective for the N-termini and C-termini of the gastrin hormone forms, gastrin-17 (G17), glycine-extended gastrin-17 (G17-Gly), gastrin-34 (G34) and glycine-extended gastrin-34 (G34-Gly); and the hybridomas that produce these MAbs. Also provided are panels of MAbs useful for the detection and quantitation of gastrin-17 (G17), glycine-extended gastrin-17 (G17-Gly), gastrin-34 (G34) and glycine-extended gastrin-34 (G34-Gly). These assays are useful for monitoring a gastrin-mediated disease or condition, or for monitoring the progress of a course of therapy. The invention further provides solid phase assays including immunohistochemical (IHC) and immunofluorescence (IF) assays suitable for detection and visualization of gastrin species in solid samples, such as biopsy samples or tissue slices. Pharmaceutical compositions of the MAbs of the invention are also provided, along with methods of diagnosis, prevention and treatment of gastrin-mediated diseases or conditions. Methods of evaluating a gastrin hormone-blocking treatment are described. The course of a gastrin-mediated disease or condition may be monitored in a patient by means of assay methods provided.
摘要:
The invention provides liposomal vehicles for encapsulating relatively high levels of water-soluble substances including immunogens directed against gastrin and gonadotropin releasing hormone. The liposome encapsulating large amounts of immunogens can be injected parentally to induce effective immune responses without exhibiting significant adverse tissue reactogenicity.
摘要:
A system is described for conjugating, isolating, and purifying proteins. The system contains an ultrafiltration apparatus which is connected with a reaction vessel reservoir.
摘要:
Immunogenic compositions useful for the treatment or prevention of gastric or duodenal ulcer disease are disclosed. The immunogenic compositions effectively operate by inducing antibodies in a subject which selectively neutralize specific peptide gastric hormones and inhibit the binding of the hormones to physiological receptors thus limiting the secretion of stomach acid. Pharmaceutical compositions comprising effective amounts of the immunogenic compositions and methods of treatment using the compositions are also disclosed.

A safe and effective vaccine to prevent, slow, halt or reverse progression of Alzheimer's disease in human patients is disclosed. The vaccine includes Aβ1-42 or an beta amyloid self epitope (e.g. Aβ1-15, or other 7-mer or 15-mer peptide epitopes derived from Aβ1-42) conjugated to an immunogenic carrier (e.g. DT) formulated in a water-in-oil Th2-biased adjuvant/delivery system.
