Abstract: A cancer vaccine containing as an active ingredient an antigen-specific dendritic cell pulsed by an HM1.24 protein, HM1.24 peptide or transduced with an HM1.24-encoding gene, or HM1.24 protein-encoding DNA or RNA.

Abstract: A therapeutic agent for solid tumors, the agent comprising as an active ingredient, an antibody that specifically binds to a protein having the amino acid sequence represented by SEQ ID NO:2 or an antibody fragment maintaining the antibody activity.

Abstract: The invention provides a reshaped human anti-HM 1.24 antibody having: (A) an L chain having (1) the C region of a human L chain, and (2) the V region of an L chain having the FR of a human L chain and the CDR of the L chain of a mouse anti-HM 1.24 monoclonal antibody; and (B) an H chain having (1) the C region of a human H chain, and (2) the V region of an H chain having the FR of a human H chain and the CDR of the H chain of a mouse anti-HM 1.24 monoclonal antibody. This reshaped human antibody is derived from human antibody and the CDR has a low antigenicity, and the reshaped human antibody of the present invention has a low antigenicity and can be used for medical treatment.

Abstract: An enhancer, for treatment of lymphocytic tumors, of an antibody that specifically binds to protein having the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1 and that has a cytotoxic activity, said enhancer comprising a biological response modifier as an active ingredient.

Abstract: The present invention is directed to a novel method for quantifying antigen, such as the amount expressed on a cell. The method comprises formulating an equation of correlation between the amount expressed of expressed antigen and the intensity of fluorescence from fluorescent labelled antibody.

Abstract: A therapeutic agent for solid tumors, said agent comprising as an active ingredient, an antibody that specifically binds to a protein having the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2 or an antibody fragment that maintains the antibody activity.

Abstract: A cancer vaccine containing as an active ingredient an antigen-specific dendritic cell pulsed by an HM1.24 protein, HM1.24 peptide or transduced with an HM1.24-encoding gene, or HM1.24 protein-encoding DNA or RNA.

Abstract: There are provided a genomic DNA comprising 4 exons encoding the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2 and 3 introns ligating them, and a splicing variant of said genomic DNA; as well as a DNA having the base sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4 and a promoter activity and the fragment thereof, and uses thereof.

Abstract: A method of culturing a protein-producing cell, said method comprising co-culturing one transformed cell that can constitutively produce said protein with the parent cell of said transformed cell.

Abstract: To provide a novel method of quantitating the amount expressed of antigen.

Abstract: A reshaped human anti-HM 1.24 antibody comprising: (A) an L chain comprising (1) the C region of a human L chain, and (2) the V region of an L chain comprising the FR of a human L chain and the CDR of the L chain of a mouse anti-HM 1.24 monoclonal antibody; and (B) an H chain comprising (1) the C region of a human H chain, and (2) the V region of an H chain comprising the FR of a human H chain and the CDR of the H chain of a mouse anti-HM 1.24 monoclonal antibody. Since most of this reshaped human antibody is derived from human antibody and the CDR has a low antigenicity, the reshaped human antibody of the present invention has a low antigenicity and, therefore, is expected to be-used for medical treatment.

Abstract: There are provided a genomic DNA comprising 4 exons encoding the amino acid sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2 and 3 introns ligating them, and a splicing variant of said genomic DNA; as well as a DNA having the base sequence as set forth in SEQ ID NO: 4 and a promoter activity and the fragment thereof, and uses thereof.
