ABSTRACT:
An immunoassay for the polypeptidic thymic hormone thymopoietin (thymin) is described. Determination of thymopoietin levels in biological fluids provides a useful diagnostic test for myasthenia gravis (elevated levels), immune deficiency diseases (reduced levels), immunologically mediated diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus and allergy (reduced levels) cancer (reduced levels), malnutrition (reduced levels) and infections (reduced levels). The present assay is also useful as a monitor of the effectiveness of therapy in each of the aforementioned types of disease states.
