Immunoassays To Detect Diseases Or Disease Susceptibility Traits

US Patent:
7981692, Jul 19, 2011
Filed:
Dec 21, 2010
Appl. No.:
12/975270
Inventors:
Bruce M. Boman - Gladwyne PA, US
Assignee:
CA*TX Inc. - Gladwyne PA
International Classification:
G01N 33/53, G01N 33/48, G01N 33/566, G01N 33/567
US Classification:
436501, 436503, 436 63, 436 64, 436504, 436505, 436518, 435 71, 435 792
Abstract:
Disclosed are immunoassay methods for the diagnosis/prognosis of diseases and disease susceptibility traits associated with gene mutations that cause protein truncation or allelic loss. The levels of one or more targeted wild-type proteins expressed by a subject gene or genes are immunologically quantitated in biological samples. Results indicating that a targeted wild-type protein is not present in an assayed sample, or that approximately 50% of the normal amount of such a wild-type protein is present in an assayed sample are considered to be positive for a mutation in one or both alleles of a subject gene, and correlated with the disease or the disease susceptibility trait associated with that mutation or mutations. Normal cells, particularly normal peripheral blood lymphocytes, are preferred biological samples.

Dna Sequences Isolated From Human Colonic Epithelial Cells

US Patent:
2003021, Nov 27, 2003
Filed:
Mar 29, 2002
Appl. No.:
10/089887
Inventors:
Bruce Boman - Gladwyne PA, US
Assignee:
CA*TX Inc.
International Classification:
C12Q001/68, G01N033/53, A01K067/027, C07H021/04, C12P021/02, C12N005/06, C07K014/705
US Classification:
435/006000, 435/007100, 435/069100, 435/320100, 435/325000, 530/350000, 536/023500, 800/014000
Abstract:
The present invention discloses novel nucleic acid sequences which are implicated in the growth regulation of the epithelial cells of the colon, and which sequences are differentially expressed in cancerous colon tissues compared to normal colon tissues. These sequences are useful in diagnosing abnormal cell growth, treatment of abnormal cell growth and screening assays for treatments of abnormal cell growth.
