Abstract:
The present invention provides monoclonal antibodies which specifically recognize the shorter Aβ peptides obtained after cleavage of the APP protein mediated by γ-secretase, i.e. the Aβ-peptide fragments Aβ1-37, Aβ3-37, Aβ3p-37, Aβ1-37 and Aβ11p-37, and other like fragments ending at the 37th amino acid of APP, hereinafter also referred to as the Aβx-37 peptides. It further provides hybridoma cells producing the monoclonal antibodies as well as methods for producing the antibodies and the hybridoma cells; and an immunoassay for an Aβx-37 peptide by a competitive method or a sandwich method using the antibody of the present invention; and methods for measuring the level of Aβx-37 peptides in a sample, such as a biological sample.
