Title:
DIAGNOSTIC AGENT AND MEDICINE COMPRISING ADAMTS13 AS MAIN INGREDIENT
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2017/119498
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a novel use of ADAMTS13 in the medical field. Use of ADAMTS13 as a biomarker for monitoring the onset of hepatopathy, hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury or hepatic function after liver transplantation; a method for examining hepatopathy, a method for examining hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury or a method for examining hepatic function after liver transplantation, each method comprising measuring or monitoring ADAMTS13 activity in a sample obtained from a mammal; and a therapeutic agent for a disease selected from the group consisting of hepatopathy, hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury and hepatic dysfunction after liver transplantation, said agent comprising ADAMTS13 or a modification thereof.
