## Abstract We examined the correlation among the levels of urinary monocyte chemoattractant proteinβ1 (MCPβ1) and interleukinβ8 (ILβ8), hyperglycemia, and renal injuries in patients with type 2 diabetic nephropathy. The levels of urinary MCPβ1, ILβ8, protein excretion, blood urea nitrogen (BUN), s
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
