The present invention provides methods of improving the osteogenic and / or chondrogenic activity of a bone matrix, e.g., a dermineralized bone matrix (DBM), by exposing the bone matrix to one or more treatments or conditions. In preferred embodiments the bone matrix is derived from human bone. The treatment or condition may alter the structure of the bone matrix and / or cleave one or more specific proteins. Cleavage may generate peptides or protein fragments that have osteoinductive, osteogenic, or chondrogenic activity. Preferred treatments include collagenase and various other proteases. The invention further provides improved bone and cartilage matrix compositions that have been prepared according to the inventive methods and methods of treatment using the compositions. The invention further provides methods of preparing, testing, and using the improved bone matrix compositions. Ona assay comprises exposing relatively undifferentiated mesenchymal cells to a bone matrix composition and measuring expression of a marker characteristic of osteoblast or chondrocyte lineage(s). Increased expression of the marker relative to the level of the marker in cells that have been exposed to a control matrix (e.g., an inactivated or untreated matrix) indicates that the treatment or condition increased the osteogenic and / or chondrogenic activity of the bone matrix. Suitable cells include C2C12 cells. A suitable marker is alkaline phosphatase. The inventive methods increase the osteogenic and / or chondrogenic activity of human DBM when tested using this assay system.

The invention provides a detection kit of IgM / IgG antibodies of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), and relates to the technical field of biology. According to the detection kit of IgM / IgG antibodies of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2), the IgM / IgG antibodies of novel coronavirus (SARS-CoV-2) are detected through adoption of a colloidal gold capture method, a colloidal gold indirect method and a colloidal gold double antigen sandwich method, wherein adopted antigens are highly active recombinant antigens which are obtained through fusion expression of N protein fragments and S protein dominant epitope fragments, and colloidal gold is labeled indirectly, so that steric hindrance is reduced, and the activity, reaction consistency and accuracy of the antigens are increased. Since a sample pad is pretreated, the interference of complex components in a blood sample to a reaction can be reduced greatly, the detection kit has no requirements for instruments during detection, simple and flexible operation, direct and manual interpretation of results and a short test time, the results can be interpreted in only 15 minutes, and the test results are accurate.

A method for identifying a desired binding agent that interferes with the interaction between a protein, protein fragment, polypeptide or a peptide and a binding surrogate. The method comprises combining the protein, protein fragment, polypeptide or peptide, the binding surrogate and a binding agent. Detecting a decrease in the interaction between the protein, protein fragment, polypeptide or peptide from the binding surrogate indicates that the binding agent interferes with the interaction. Proteins useful in the method include the tau protein phosphorylated at threonine (231), the Amyloid Precursor Protein (APP) phosphorylated at threonine (668 and cdc25 phosphorylated at threonine (48). Compounds identified by the method are useful in the treatment of Alzheimers' disease and cancer.

The invention provides methods for analyzing the protein content of a biological sample, for example to obtain a protein profile of a sample provided by a particular individual. The proteins and protein fragments in the sample are separated on the basis of chemical and / or physical properties and maintained in a separated state at discrete locations on a solid substrate or within a stream of flowing liquid. Raman spectra are then detected as produced by the separated proteins or fragments at the discrete locations such that a spectrum from a discrete location provides information about the structure or identity of one or more particular proteins or fragments at the discrete location. The proteins or fragments at discrete locations can be coated with a metal, such as gold or silver, and / or the separated proteins can be contacted with a chemical enhancer to provide SERS spectra. Method and kits for practicing the invention are also provided.
