Towards clinical translation of urinary vitronectin for non-invasive detection and monitoring of renal fibrosis in kidney transplant patients
VTN has emerged as a valid indicator of renal fibrosis. Of interest, urinary levels of VTN in combination with conventional clinical parameters (such as albuminuria) significantly improved the non-invasive detection of renal fibrosis in kidney transplant patients.
