International Urology and Nephrology, 07/16/09
Soni SS et al. - Neutrophil gelatinase–associated lipocalin (NGAL) is a 25 kDa protein belonging to the lipocalin superfamily. Since serum creatinine is known to be an inadequate and late marker of AKI, NGAL might soon emerge as a troponin-like early marker for AKI. Recent evidence also suggests its role as a biomarker in a variety of other renal and non-renal conditions.
