Evaluation of the urinary kidney injury molecule-1 levels in patients with diabetic nephropathy.
PURPOSE Kidney Injury Molecule-1 is a protein that increases in urine following tubular damage. Kidney Injury Molecule-1 levels were correlated with the level of chronic kidney disease secondary to diabetic nephropathy in patients with type 2 Diabetes Mellitus. METHODS Clinical and laboratory findings of 142 patients with diabetic nephropathy and 34 control subjects were analysed. Creatinine ...
متن کاملKidney injury molecule-1 as a predicting factor for inflamed kidney, diabetic and diabetic nephropathy Egyptian patients
BACKGROUND Kidney injury molecule-1 (KIM-1), a recently discovered transmembrane protein, is expressed in dedifferentiated proximal renal tubular epithelial cells in damaged regions. Kidney injury early detection in diabetic patients has great importance for therapy and prognosis. Therefore, the aim of the present study is to predict, validate and evaluate the presence of KIM-1 in kidney inflam...
متن کاملHistological changes of kidney in diabetic nephropathy
Diabetes mellitus is the most common cause of chronic renal disorders and end-stage kidney disease in developed countries. It is the major cause of dialysis and transplantation. Failure in renal function causes wide disorders in the body. Diabetes results in wide range of alterations in the renal tissue. It is believed that early histological changes in diabetic nephropathy are detectabl...
متن کاملTubular kidney injury molecule-1 in protein-overload nephropathy.
Kim-1, a recently discovered membrane protein, is undetectable in normal kidneys but markedly induced in proximal tubules after ischemic and toxic injury. The function of Kim-1 is unclear, but it is implicated in damage/repair processes. The Kim-1 ectodomain is cleaved by metalloproteinases and detectable in urine. We studied Kim-1 in a nontoxic, nonischemic, model of tubulointerstitial damage ...
متن کاملUrinary kidney injury molecule-1: a sensitive quantitative biomarker for early detection of kidney tubular injury.
Sensitive and specific biomarkers are needed to detect early kidney injury. The objective of the present work was to develop a sensitive quantitative urinary test to identify renal injury in the rodent to facilitate early assessment of pathophysiological influences and drug toxicity. Two mouse monoclonal antibodies were made against the purified ectodomain of kidney injury molecule-1 (Kim-1), a...
