Provided is an antibody which binds to an epitope of collagen type VI alpha 1 comprised in the N-terminal globular domain internal amino acid sequence -ADWGQSRDAEEAISQ- (SEQ ID NO: 1). Also provided is a method of immunoassay for detecting in a biological sample an epitope comprised in the N-terminal globular domain internal amino acid sequence -ADWGQSRDAEEAISQ- (SEQ ID NO: 1) of collagen type VI alpha 1, by contacting the sample with the antibody, and determining the amount of binding of the antibody. |
