  • Title: The amount of Tamm-Horsfall-protein in the human kidney, related to its daily excretion.
    Author: Schoel B, Pfleiderer G.
    Journal: J Clin Chem Clin Biochem; 1987 Oct; 25(10):681-2. PubMed ID: 3694126.
    Abstract:
    1. The amount of Tamm-Horsfall-protein in the human kidney was determined using zonal-immunoelectrophoresis. 2. A value of 115 micrograms Tamm-Horsfall-protein per gram kidney-tissue was found (1.3 micrograms Tamm-Horsfall-protein per mg protein), representing a total amount of about 40 mg Tamm-Horsfall-protein in both kidneys. 3. As the well documented daily excretion of Tamm-Horsfall-protein is 40 mg, i.e. in the range of its content in the kidneys, it is inferred that the total amount of Tamm-Horsfall-protein must be synthesized de novo each day.
