The present invention relates generally to gelsolin binding agents (eg, antibodies) that can bind to gelsolin polypeptides. The gelsolin binding agents of the invention are useful alone or in combination for the detection of gelsolin polypeptides (also known as target polypeptides) in a test sample, in addition to the purification of native gelsolin proteins. Gelsolin binding agents are also useful in diagnosing gelsolin-related medical conditions in a subject in need thereof. A kit for detecting gelsolin in a biological sample is provided by the present invention. [Selection] Figure 1 |
