Part #: 0025259
Manufacturers:
Human BMG is a single polypeptide that is shed from the cell membrane of all nucleated cells. In general, BMG can easily pass the glomerular basement membrane and in the renal tubule most of it is reabsorbed and catabolized. Therefore, when reabsorption by the renal tubule is hindered, a large amount of BMG is excreted in urine. On the other hand if glomerular filtration rate (GFR) is reduced, the level of BMG in the blood increases, making it possible to differentiate the two diseases. The level of urinary BMG is elevated in diseases such as heavy metal poisoning, Fanconi syndrome and Wilson’s disease, while the level of serum BMG is elevated in diseases such as chronic nephritis, nephrotic syndrome, malignant tumor and autoimmune disease. BMG assay has been applied to the diagnosis, monitoring and prognostication of these diseases.
