Renal ischemia increases urinary nucleophosmin (NPM). Marked accumulation of total NPM in murine urine was detected by dot blot analysis 6 and 12 hours after 25 minutes of transient bilateral renal ischemia, but it disappeared within 48 hours postischemia. In contrast, no urinary NPM was detected at the same time points in sham-operated animals.
