Tamm-Horsfall protein is a critical renal defense factor protecting against calcium oxalate crystal formation.

Kidney international - 1 Sept 2004

Mo Lan, Huang Hong-Ying, Zhu Xin-Hua, Shapiro Ellen, Hasty David L, Wu Xue-Ru

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The tubular fluid of the mammalian kidney is often supersaturated with mineral salts, but crystallization rarely occurs under normal conditions. The unique ability of the kidney to avoid harmful crystal formation has long been attributed to the inhibitory activity of the urinary macro...
