Early identification of kidney impairment using the Uromodulin ELISA

/

Uromodulin is a kidney-specific glycoprotein, which is mainly secreted in the urine but also, in small amounts, into the bloodstream. 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

Uromodulin: an important biomarker in nephrology

/

Uromodulin is a kidney-specific glycoprotein, which is exclusively expressed by the epithelial cells of the ascending limb of loop of Henle (TAL cells) and secreted into the urine. 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

Hantavirus infections on the rise

/

Clinicians and biologists expect increasing numbers of infections with hantaviruses in Germany this year due to the ongoing strong reproduction of the bank vole and the striped field mouse. The rodents function as reservoirs and spread the virus through their excrements. Dust, contaminated with the pathogen, may be inhaled by humans when sweeping a shed
