  • Publication number: 20210095012
    Abstract: The present invention mainly addresses the problem of providing an antibody against semaphorin 3A protein, said antibody enabling effective prevention and/or treatment of a disease, in which Sema 3A protein participates, such as a neurodegenerative disease, autoimmune disease, inflammatory disease, cancer, infectious disease, etc. or disseminated intravascular coagulation syndrome.

  • Publication number: 20090170217
    Abstract: An object of the present invention is to introduce a sample solution into the minute and hydrophobic inside of a reactor for a pretreatment while avoiding bubble formation. According to the present invention, a reactor that has at least one portion having a width of 90% or less of its whole width between an inflow opening and an outflow opening is constructed on a planar substrate.

  • Publication number: 20070037213
    Abstract: The expression and the phosphorylation level of a target protein are determined without performing complicated operations involving risk; the expression and the phosphorylation level of the target protein are simultaneously determined, by separating and detecting the specific protein from other proteins different from the specific protein, and by specifically detecting a phosphorylated residue of the identified target protein; and finally a ratio of the target protein phosphorylated is calculated to obtain the phosphorylation ratio of the protein.

  • Publication number: 20060216795
    Abstract: The object of the present invention is to promote the efficiency and simplify a sample pretreatment step for analysis of molecules contained in the sample. In the present invention, a plurality of various enzymes necessary for pretreatment of sample for analysis of various molecules contained in the sample are immobilized on a solid phase separately for each kind of enzyme, and the enzyme reactions are carried out simultaneously. That is, a sample is reacted with plural kinds of enzymes under the same conditions, and contamination caused by the enzyme reactions is inhibited and the sample is subjected to a given pretreatment.

  • Publication number: 20050255526
    Abstract: It is an object of the present invention to conduct function analysis of proteins arranged with high density on a solid phase in a high-throughput manner, regardless of protein varieties. The present invention is characterized in that it immobilizes target proteins on a substrate while maintaining the structures and the functions thereof, and that it carries out interaction analysis of such proteins. For example, target proteins are prepared in a state where one end of each protein is fused to a peptide as a tag or to a polypeptide by genetic engineering methods. Then, the target proteins are bonded to the substrate via a layer formed thereon, comprising anti-tag antibodies. The target proteins are arrayed while they are maintained in a liberated state on a solid phase, and the interaction analysis is carried out. According to the present invention, the interaction analysis of target proteins can be carried out without affecting the unstable structures and the functions thereof.
