Publication number: 20180246121Abstract: It was found that when measuring HMGB1 in samples using antibodies that bind to both HMGB2 and HMGB1, the reaction between HMGB2 and HMGB1 antibodies can be suppressed by coexisting HMGB2 absorbents (HMGB2 antibodies and/or HMGB2-derived peptides that inhibit the binding between HMGB2 and HMGB1 antibodies). More specifically, it was revealed that HMGB1 alone in samples can be measured or detected by contacting the samples with HMGB1 antibodies in the presence of HMGB2 absorbents.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 19, 2016Publication date: August 30, 2018Applicants: Fuso Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd., Canon Kabushiki KaishaInventors: Masahiro Asakura, Aya Keshi, Masaaki Kobayashi

Patent number: 9663828Abstract: An objective of the present invention is to provide the cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) of C. hyointestinalis and polynucleotides encoding it, and novel methods for detection of C. hyointestinalis using the cdt genes. The present inventors focused on the cytolethal distending toxin (CDT) of Campylobacter bacteria, and detected the cdt genes of a Campylobacter-like bacterium isolated from an enteritis patient in Thailand. The present inventors discovered a bacterial strain whose cdtB gene was amplified by common primers in C. jejuni, C. coli, and C. fetus, but not by multiplex PCR that can specifically detect the cdtA, cdtB, and cdtC genes of the three bacterial species. The bacterial strain was identified as C. hyointestinalis by 16S rRNA gene analysis. Furthermore, the entire nucleotide sequence of the cdt genes was determined by genome walking upstream and downstream of the cdtB gene.Type: GrantFiled: October 11, 2013Date of Patent: May 30, 2017Assignees: Osaka Prefecture University Public Corporation, Fuso Pharmaceutical Industries, Ltd.Inventors: Shinji Yamasaki, Worada Samosorunsuk, Masahiro Asakura
