Urinary albumin fragments (uAF) from patients with NIDDM were analyzed as a possible factor in the early discovery of diabetic nephropathy before emergence of microalbuminuria. SDS-PAGE and immunoblot assay were employed for detection of uAF. Samples from 252 patients with NIDDM, 158 patients with non-diabetic diseases, and 48 healthy volunteers were examined; uAF were detected in 139 (55.2%), 94 (59.5%), only one (2.1%), respectively. In diabetic patients with normoalbuminuria, uAF were detected in 48 out of 159 cases (30.2%). Two years after the initial study, 3 of the 17 diabetic patients (17.6%) with normoalbuminuria and uAF showed micro- or macroalbuminuria. It was concluded that detection of uAF might be useful for the early detection of diabetic nephropathy in NIDDM.

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.

D003928 Diabetic Nephropathies KIDNEY injuries associated with diabetes mellitus and affecting KIDNEY GLOMERULUS; ARTERIOLES; KIDNEY TUBULES; and the interstitium. Clinical signs include persistent PROTEINURIA, from microalbuminuria progressing to ALBUMINURIA of greater than 300 mg/24 h, leading to reduced GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE and END-STAGE RENAL DISEASE.

D004797 Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay An immunoassay utilizing an antibody labeled with an enzyme marker such as horseradish peroxidase. While either the enzyme or the antibody is bound to an immunosorbent substrate, they both retain their biologic activity; the change in enzyme activity as a result of the enzyme-antibody-antigen reaction is proportional to the concentration of the antigen and can be measured spectrophotometrically or with the naked eye. Many variations of the method have been developed.
