Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Described herein are FGF-23 epitope peptides, methods of producing antibodies in laying hens by injecting the peptides, and methods of improving resistance to eggshell breakage and/or increasing eggshell strength by administering an FGF-23 epitope peptide to a laying hen.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. An FGF-23 epitope peptide, wherein the peptide is 8-12 amino acids in length and comprises SEQ ID NO: 3 or SEQ ID NO: 4 and wherein the FGF-23 epitope peptide is conjugated to a carrier protein. 2. The FGF-23 epitope peptide of claim 1 , wherein the carrier protein is bovine gamma globulin, bovine serum albumin, keyhole limpet hemocyanin, or ovalbumin. 3. A pharmaceutical composition comprising a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and an FGF-23 epitope peptide, wherein the FGF-23 epitope peptide is 8-12 amino acids in length and comprises SEQ ID NO: 3 or SEQ ID NO: 4, and wherein the FGF-23 epitope peptide is conjugated to a carrier protein. 4. The composition of claim 3 , wherein the carrier protein is bovine gamma globulin, bovine serum albumin, keyhole limpet hemocyanin, or ovalbumin. 5. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 3 , wherein the composition is for oral, aerosol, or parenteral administration. 6. The pharmaceutical composition of claim 5 , wherein the pharmaceutically acceptable excipient is an immunological adjuvant.
