Title:
ACCURATE AND HIGHLY SENSITIVE METHOD FOR MEASURING ACTIVITY OF HUMAN FGF19 AND AGENT FOR REGULATING ACTIVITY OF HUMAN FGF19
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/086809
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided is a method for accurately measuring the activity of human FGF19 through human FGFR in an in vivo human environment. Also provided are a screening method for a human FGF19-like substance or a substance which selectively enhances or suppresses only the activity of human FGF19 to activate human FGFR4 in the coexistence of human beta-Klotho, a kit therefor, and an agent for selectively enhancing or suppressing the activity of human FGF19 to activate human FGFR4 in the coexistence of human beta-Klotho.
