abstract：AIMS AND METHODS:This study was carried out to clarify whether the urinary excretion of type IV collagen (u-IV collagen) detected by specific radioimmunoassay, can be used as an indicator for the progression of diabetic nephropathy. RESULTS:u-IV collagen was higher in diabetic subjects with microalbuminuria and overt ...
