Abstract
The present invention provides an immunological binding partner reactive with a C-terminal epitope of the C5 domain of the α3 chain of collagen Type 6, and a method of immunoassay using the immunological binding partner for detecting and quantifying the C-terminal epitope. The invention also provides a method of investigating the rate of formation of extracellular matrix and a method for identifying a subject suitable for treatment with an insulin sensitizer.
