The present invention relates to a method for diagnosing leukemia, pre-leukemia or aleukemic malignant blood diseases, a method of discriminating leukemia from pre-leukemia or aleukemic malignant blood diseases, a method of discriminating aplastic anemia from myelodysplastic syndrome, a method of diagnosing delayed engraftment of the hematopoietic stem cells after transplantation of the hematopoietic stem cells, and a method of diagnosing the graft versus host disease, each of said methods comprising quantifying stem cell growth factor (SCGF). The present invention also makes it possible to provide an agent for diagnosing leukemia, pre-leukemia or aleukemic malignant blood diseases and an agent for diagnosing delayed engraftment of the hematopoietic stem cells after transplantation of the hematopoietic stem cells or an agent for diagnosing graft versus host disease (GVHD), each containing as an active ingredient an antibody reacting with stem cell growth factor (SCGF).
本发明涉及一种白血病、白血病前期或白血病恶性血液病的诊断方法,一种白血病与白血病前期或白血病恶性血液病的鉴别方法,一种再生障碍性贫血与骨髓增生异常综合征的鉴别方法、诊断造血干细胞移植后造血干细胞移植延迟的方法,以及诊断移植物抗宿主疾病的方法,上述每种方法都包括量化干细胞生长因子(SCGF)。本发明还能提供一种用于诊断白血病、白血病前期或白血病恶性血液疾病的制剂,以及一种用于诊断造血干细胞移植后造血干细胞移植延迟的制剂或一种用于诊断移植物抗宿主疾病(GVHD)的制剂,每种制剂都含有与干细胞生长因子(SCGF)反应的抗体作为活性成分。
