<p>The, present invention relates to a rapid assay for detection of human cellular fibronectin (c- Fn) where ELISA-based assays have previously been developed for detecting and measuring cellular fibronectin in biological fluids, but these methods are too time-consuming for practical clinical diagnostic use. The assay of the present invention enables prediction of bleeding events on a rapid timescale. Described as well are high affinity human monoclonal antibodies, particularly those directed against isotopic determinants of cellular fibronectin (c-Fn), as well as direct equivalents and derivatives of these antibodies. These antibodies bind to their respective target with an affinity at least 100 fold greater than they do to plasma fibronectin, and enable assays to be created that detect c-Fn in less than 30 minutes in a variety of detection formats, and in some detection formats less than 15 minutes. These antibodies are useful for diagnostics, particularly prediction of bleeding events, prophylaxis and treatment of disease.</p> |
