Summary for Patent: 5,147,783
Title: Methods to screen for ovarian cancer and myocardial infarction
Abstract:A monoclonal antibody against human manganese-superoxide dismutase characterized in that it is produced by a cell line which has been obtained by immunization of a mouse with human Mn-SOD and then fusion of lymphocytes obtained from the mouse with mouse myeloma cells, and has high specificity against human Mn-SOD; a method for producing a monoclonal antibody against human Mn-SOD having high specificity against human Mn-SOD, which comprises culturing the cell line obtained by immunization of a mouse with human Mn-SOD and then cell fusion of lymphocytes obtained from the mouse with mouse myeloma cells; a kit for assaying human Mn-SOD, comprising: (a) a monoclonal antibody having very high specific immuno-reactivity against human Mn-SOD; and (b) a reagent of a monoclonal antibody having very high specific immuno-reactivity against human Mn-SOD labelled with an enzyme (enzyme labelled antibody); a method for assaying human Mn-SOD use of the kit; a novel diagnostic method of human epithelial ovarian cancer, which comprises assaying the concentration of human Mn-SOD in a body fluid by use of the assay kit; and a novel diagnostic method of myocardial infarction, which comprises assaying the concentration of human Mn-SOD in a body fluid by use of the assay kit.

Assignee: Ube Industries, Ltd. (Ube, JP)
Application Number:07/352,109
Patent Claims:1. A method of screening for human epithelial ovarian cancer, which comprises (a) assaying for a concentration of human Mn-SOD in a body fluid by contacting the bodily fluid with a monoclonal antibody having a high specificity against human Mn-SOD, said monoclonal antibody not being reactive with any human albumin, human globulin, Cu and Zn-SOD, said monoclonal antibody being immobilized on a carrier, and (b) determining whether a concentration of 130 ng/ml or more of human Mn-SOD in a bodily fluid is present as an indication of the presence of epithelial ovarian cancer.

2. The method according to claim 1, wherein the monoclonal antibody is secreted from a hybridoma selected from the group consisting of FERM-BP 1606, FERM-BP 1607 and FERM-BP 1608.

3. A method of screening for myocardial infarction, which comprises (a) assaying for a concentration of human Mn-SOD in a body fluid by contacting the bodily fluid with a monoclonal antibody having a high specificity against human Mn-SOD, said monoclonal antibody not being reactive with any of human albumin, human globulin. Cu and Zn-SOD, said monoclonal antibody being immobilized on a carrier, and (b) determining whether a concentration of 150 ng/ml of more of human Mn-SOD in a bodily fluid is present as an indication of an occurrence of a myocardial infarction.

4. The method according to claim 3, wherein the monoclonal antibody is secreted from a hybridoma selected from the group consisting of FERM-BP 1606, FERM-BP 1607 and FERM-BP 1608.
