Abstract: The present invention provides methods for the diagnosis of aggressive prostate cancer, including, but not limited to, methods for discerning between aggressive and non-aggressive forms of prostate cancer, and methods for detecting aggressive prostate cancer based on comparisons to a mixed control population of subjects with non-aggressive prostate cancer or not having prostate

Abstract: The present invention relates to therapeutic antibodies for the treatment of cancer, and more specifically, for the treatment of prostate, bladder, and/or pancreatic cancer. An embodiment of the present invention is an anti-glypican-1 (GPC 1) antibody, which may be conjugated to at least one cytotoxic agent that is toxic to a prostate, bladder, and/or pancreatic cancer cell.

Abstract: The present invention relates to epitopes of glypican-1 (GPC-1) and uses thereof.

Abstract: The present application is directed to an invention based on the discovery that the BLCA-38 antibody is actually an antibody population comprising two distinct monoclonal antibodies. The claims define an isolated antibody population comprising first antibodies and/or antigen binding fragments thereof defined by specific heavy chain and light chain variable regions and wherein the antibody population does not contain second antibodies defined by specific light chain variable regions. The claims also define hybridoma cells, cultures capable of producing such antibody populations, compositions comprising such antibody populations, nucleic acid molecules encoding such antibodies, vectors, host cells thereof, and processes for production of the antibody populations of the invention.

Abstract: The present invention provides compositions and methods of detecting prostate cancer in the body fluids or tissues of patients. Prostate cancer is detected by measuring the level of glypican-1 in a body fluid sample. In one embodiment prostate cancer is detected by contacting a body fluid sample with an anti-glypican-1 antibody, such as MIL-38. The invention includes kits for detection of prostate cancer in a body fluid sample, comprising an anti-glypican-1 antibody and glypican-1 standards.

Abstract: The present invention relates to the diagnosis of prostate disease and the identification of biomarkers in biological samples which can be used in the detection of prostate disease. The invention further relates to the use of the biomarker glycipan-1 (GPC-1) in combination with other biomarkers in diagnostic methods which differentiate between prostate cancer and non-cancerous forms of prostate disease such as benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Abstract: An assay for testing a subject for diabetes or a predisposition to diabetes including analysing a biological fluid from a subject for the presence of one or more proteins selected from the group consisting of Alpha 2 macroglobulin, Apolipoprotein All, Immunoglobulin alpha heavy chain constant region, Immunoglobulin mu chain C region, Chain A of Human IgA1, Inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H4 precursor, and Apolipoprotein B100; wherein detection of the protein is indicative of diabetes or a predisposition to diabetes in the subject

Abstract: A method and apparatus for forming an absorbent core assembly containing a batt of particulate material which may be used in an absorbent article. The apparatus may include a laydown drum having a plurality of vacuum zones, a plurality of fence zones, and a plurality of blow-off zones. The vacuum zones may be substantially permeable to permit air to pass through and into the laydown drum. The fence zones may be substantially impermeable to inhibit air from passing through. The blow-off zones may be substantially permeable to permit air to pass out of and through said laydown drum. The apparatus may also include a deposition chute for depositing particulate material on a web of material in close proximity to the laydown drum. A shield may also be attached to the deposition chute in order to prevent the particles from bouncing off of the laydown drum.

Abstract: A method of screening or detecting non-ocular disease in an animal, the method comprising the steps of: (a) obtaining a tear sample from the animal; (b) separating biomolecules present in the tear sample; and (c) detecting for the presence or absence of one or more biomolecules such that the presence or absence of the one or more biomolecules being an indicator or marker of a disease state in the animal.

Abstract: An electrophoresis apparatus for the simultaneous electrophoretic separation of a plurality of component mixtures using a disposable tray having a plurality of parallel troughs shaped to retain an elongate strip of isoelectric focusing medium and sufficient liquid to immerse the elongate strip. A frame is provided to retain the tray in a horizontal position using a pair of rotatably mounted support members moving between an open and closed position. Support members are also connected to a plurality of electrodes aligned with each of the troughs so that the electrodes are positioned clear of the troughs in the open position and positioned in the troughs when in the closed position.
