Embodiment 1
[0286] Example 1. Composite ELISA for Quantification of Functional Cl-INH in Plasma Using Activated Factor XII and / or Plasma Kallikrein
[0287] Dysfunction of the C1 inhibitor, C1-INH, has been demonstrated in hereditary angioedema type II (HAE), which renders the inhibitor ineffective. Type I HAE has low total C1-INH protein levels. Type III HAE is associated with normal C1-INH levels. (“Enzymatic pathways in the pathogenesis of hereditary angioedema: Therole of C1 inhibitor therapy.” Kaplan, A., The Journal of Allergy and Clinical Immunology 126(5):918-252010). C1-INH inhibits Factor XIIa, Fragment of Factor XII (XIIf), kallikrein and plasmin. In the absence of C1-INH function, marked activation of the bradykinin formation cascade leads to severe angioedema. Type I HAE is usually characterized by decreased total C1-INH levels. Type II HAE is usually characterized by normal to increased C1-INH levels, however the function of C1-INH is abnormal. The mechanisms leading to...
Embodiment 2
[0293] Example 2. Diagnostic Assay for Hereditary Angioedema Based on Inhibition of Activated Factor XII and / or Plasma Kallikrein
[0294] method
[0295] Patient and Sample Collection: Diagnosis of HAE is made by clinical presentation, low C1-INH protein and / or functional levels (using commercial assays). Citrated plasma from 42 patients with HAE and 23 healthy controls was separated by centrifugation of freshly collected blood at 2000 rpm for 10 minutes at 4°C. All samples were immediately aliquoted and stored at -80°C. Samples were handled similarly at all participating sites (Odense, Denmark; Budapest, Hungary) and shipped overnight on dry ice. The protocol was approved by the Ethics Committee (Ethics Committee) and the Data Protection Agency (Data Protection Agency) of the two participating sites.
[0296] Purified human Factor XIIa and kallikrein were obtained from Enzyme Research Laboratories (South Bend, IN), biotinylation reagents were obtained from Thermo Scientif...
