ThenThe present invention relates to a method for the investigation ofnextracellularnbody fluidsnthe presence of the Y-box protein YB-1 and fragments thereof,nwhich are secreted by the cell, for the determination of inflammatorynOperations andnmalignant diseases in mammals.nThe invention further includes the use of YB-1 as a markernand a detection kit fornthe detection of YB-1 and polypeptide fragments of YB-1 and combinationnfrom that. FurthermorenFor example, the invention includes a pharmaceutical composition for treatmentnof inflammatory processes andnmalignancies involving the YB-1 protein, fragments of the YB-1 protein,nantibodynagainst the YB-1 protein and / or fragments of the YB-1 protein. |
