Abstract

See full text

An object of the present invention is to provide a method for measuring a glycan-marker glycoprotein, by which liver disease can be detected with higher accuracy than is possible with conventional methods. Also, an object of the present invention is to provide a method for examining liver disease, by which liver disease can be detected with higher accuracy than is possible with conventional methods. Also, an object of the present invention is to provide a reagent for quantitative determination of a glycoprotein, which is used for the above measurement methods. Furthermore, an object of the present invention is to provide a glycan-marker glycoprotein as an index for clinical conditions of liver disease, which is capable of identifying the clinical conditions of liver disease depending on the progress of liver disease. The method for measuring a glycoprotein is characterized in that: the glycoprotein is at least one glycoprotein selected from alpha-1-acid glycoprotein (AGP) and Mac-2-binding protein (M2BP) contained in a sample collected from a subject; when the glycoprotein is AGP, AGP binding to a first lectin selected from AOL and MAL is measured; and when the glycoprotein is M2BP, M2BP binding to a second lectin selected from WFA, BPL, AAL, RCA120, and TJAII is measured.
