DETECTION OF HISTONE MODIFICATION IN CELL-FREE NUCLEOSOMES |
摘要 |
This invention relates to the diagnosis of disease conditions, such as cancer and autoimmune disease, by the analysis of cell-free nucleosomes in samples from individuals. Methods of the invention may include contacting cell-free nucleosomes from a biological fluid sample obtained from the individual with an antibody that binds specifically with a modified histone protein. Binding of the antibody to the nucleosomes is indicative that the individual has the disease condition. |

1. A method of assessing a disease condition in an individual comprising;
contacting nucleosomes from a biological fluid sample obtained from the individual with an antibody which binds specifically with a modified histone protein to identify a nucleosome comprising a modified histone protein, and isolating DNA associated with the nucleosome comprising a modified histone. |
