Abstract: The invention relates to a modified antibody which contains two or more H chain V regions and two or more L chain V regions of monoclonal antibody and can transduce a signal into cells by crosslinking TPO receptor to thereby exert TPO agonist action. The modified antibody can be used as a TPO signal transduction agonist and, therefore, useful as a remedy for various diseases such as platelet-reduction-related blood diseases, thrombopenia following chemotherapy for cancer or leukemia, etc.

Abstract: Disclosed are an antibody against human para-thyroid-hormone-related protein, a DNA coding for the antibody, a recombinant vector containing the DNA, a transformant transformed with the recombinant vector, a method for preparation of the antibody, and uses of the antibody.

Abstract: In the case when there are two objective biological activities, and the aim is to isolate a compound having at least one biological activity, the present inventors developed an assay method wherein a common detection marker is utilized for separately detecting the presence or absence of each of the biological activities. The present inventors discovered that a compound having at least one of two or more distinct biological activities can be efficiently and conveniently detected by simultaneously assaying at least one test sample or more by the above-mentioned method. Furthermore, for a test sample that proved to be positive by the detection method, they found that it is possible to efficiently and conveniently screen for a test sample having an objective specific biological activity by combining with a method wherein an individual activity of a test sample can be detected to specify the biological activity.

Abstract: A humanized antibody against tissue factor (TF), comprising: A: a humanized H chain comprising (1) a H chain V region comprising the H chain CDRs of a mouse monoclonal antibody against TF and the H chain FRs of a human antibody, and (2) the H chain C region of a human antibody; and B: a humanized L chain comprising (1) an L chain V region comprising the L chain CDRs of a mouse monoclonal antibody against TF and the L chain FRs of a human antibody, and (2) the L chain C region of a human antibody. After generating a humanized V region by grafting the CDRs of a mouse monoclonal antibody onto a human antibody, a humanized antibody having a higher activity is searched by replacing the FR of the above region with the corresponding FR of the human antibody having a high homology.

Abstract: Anti-human Mp1 antibodies were isolated and purified, and then single-chain anti-human Mp1 antibodies were prepared using genetic engineering techniques. The antibodies were found to exhibit a high agonistic activity. This shows that the activity of an antibody can be enhanced by making the antibody into a single-chain polypeptide that comprises two or more heavy chain variable regions and two or more light chain variable regions linked via linkers.
