“…Circulating antibody to Tamm-Horstall protein (THP) was measured using a radioimmunoassay in forty-five patients on maintenance hemodialysis and compared to levels of antibody titers measured in sera from ten healthy controls. The etiology of the end-stage kidney disease in the patient population was polycystic kidney disease in thirteen, glomerulonephritis in fourteen, diabetic nephropathy in nine, interstial nephritis and chronic pyelonephritis in three each, multiple myeloma in two, and urinary tract obstruction in one. …”
