The new technology provides a method for production of a standardized ?off-the-shelf? composition comprising human MSC with reliable efficacy, built on a precisely controlled GMP compliant ex vivo expansion manufacturing process.
The present invention relates to an antibody that exhibit a high affinity and mono-specificity for the A1/B-domains of human CEACAM1. Thus, it is suitable to detect the membrane anchored, the cleaved soluble CEACAM1 and most of its derivatives. It is of use in several research applications, including ELISA, WB, IP, IHC, fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry. In addition, the monoclonal antibody (mAB) is suitable for use as a diagnostic tool for the detection of inflammatory disorders (e.g. sepsis, multiple sclerosis) as well as for solid tumors, and applies for therapy monitoring of the latter.
Cancer patient data have been generated that support the diagnostic potential. A German patent application has been filed. On behalf of the University of Duisburg-Essen, PROvendis offers access to the antibody for commercial use.
