Proteinuria is an important indicator of urinary tract disease and urine dipsticks are simple and sensitive tools to screen for this marker. However, the use of dipsticks to screen for proteinuria may not be appropriate in cats, since cauxin, a 70 kDa glycoprotein, is secreted by the kidneys in
Heymann nephritis (HN) is an experimentally induced glomerulonephropathy of the rat characterized by subepithelial immune deposits and proteinuria. Immunization with a complex multimeric glycoprotein, gp600, comprising four subunits gp330, gp140, gp110, and gp70 has been shown to induce the complete
Removal of the major urinary protein, cauxin, a carboxylesterase, from cat urine is essential for distinguishing between physiological and abnormal proteinuria by a urine dipstick. We have previously developed a material for removing cauxin by using lens culinaris agglutinin (LCA) lectin which
Heymann nephritis developed in rats immunized with brush border membrane fractions isolated from rat kidney tubules. Glomerular autoantibodies eluted from cryostat sections of nephritic kidneys reacted in immunoelectron microscopy with the outer surface of isolated brush border membrane vesicles.
