Exosomal UMOD gene expression and urinary uromodulin level as early noninvasive diagnostic biomarkers for diabetic nephropathy  in type 2 diabetic patients

ConclusionUrinary exosomal mRNA ofUMOD and urinary uromodulin levels are progressively elevated in an early stage of DN, even before the microalbuminuria stage, so they could be used as early predictors for DN.
