This is the first CE-certified test for this parameter on the market. Mark Little, Professor for nephrology at the Trinity College in Dublin (Ireland) showed in a study that increased concentrations of sCD163 in urine indicate an inflammation of the […]

The protein is exclusively expressed in the kidney and is mostly secreted into the renal tubules. A small amount also ends up in the blood circulation. Both uromodulin concentration in urine as well as in serum are used as […]

The detection of specific autoantibodies in patient […]

Since it was discovered several years ago that mutations and certain polymorphisms in the uromodulin-coding gene (UMOD)  are associated with various kidney disorders and kidney vitality, the protein has been increasingly researched. Today, uromodulin is […]

There, it is the quantitatively most significant protein. Additionally, secretion of small quantities of uromodulin into the interstitium was described. In this way the proteins gets into […]
