Target/Specificity | Sheep anti-Human Tamm Horsfall Glycoprotein antibody is specific for human Tamm Horsfall Protein (THP), also known as uromodulin (Pennicaet al.1987). THP was originally isolated from normal human urine (Tammet al.1952). THP is a 616 amino acid ~85kDa glycoprotein synthesized by the kidney and is the most abundant urinary protein in healthy individuals (Pennicaet al.1987). THP forms the matrix of all urinary casts either alone (hyaline casts) or in association with cellular fragments and filtered proteins (granular casts), casts are indicative of a number of pathological states including glomerulonephritis and vasculitis (Chamberset al.1986).The specificity of sheep anti-human Tamm Horsfall glycoprotein antibody has been confirmed by double diffusion against tamm horsfall glycoprotein and an independent known antibody against THP. |
