ELISA tests were performed according to the recommendations by the manufacturer for CXCL16, TIMP1, and LCN2/NGAL (R&D Systems). The ELISA plate was measured on an Emax plate reader (Molecular Devices, Munich Germany) and then analyzed with SOFTmax Pro (Version 3-0) software.

To determine whether our assays show differences between healthy (wild-type) and affected (transgenic) animals, we evaluated serum protein levels from each of the ELISAs using an unpaired t test.

Values of P < .05 were considered to be statistically significant.
