## Abstract Diagnostic analysis of clinical markers including serum IgA levels and serum IgA/C3 ratio in patients with IgA nephropathy is described. One hundred patients with IgA nephropathy (IgA nephropathy group) and 100 patients with other primary glomerular diseases (nonβIgA nephropathy group)
The levels of serum interleukin-2 receptor (IL-2R) were studied by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) in patients with IgA nephropathy. The aim of the present study was to determine if levels of serum IL-2R might correlate with disease activity in patients with IgA nephropathy. Twenty-eight p
Using a quantitative sandwich ELISA, we studied 17 patients with IgA nephropathy to determine if levels of urinary monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) might reflect the disease activity. The levels of urinary MCP-1 in patients with the advanced stage were significantly higher than those in pa
