摘要:Immunoblot analysis for urinary fibronectin (FN) of normal and passive Heymann nephritis (PHN) rats was performed. When 2-5% skim milk or 2-10% bovine serum albumin solution was used as a blocking buffer for the immunoblot analysis, remarkable nonspecific interactions were observed between many urinary proteins and immunoglobulins used as a primary as well as a secondary antibody. Blocking of the transblot membrane with a 2% γ-globulin solution prevented such nonspecific interactions. As a result, two FN fragments, not intact FN, with molecular masses of 55- and 65-kDa were detected in all the normal rat urine samples. In PHN rat urine, intact FN and several FN fragments of 100-200-kDa were evident instead of the 55- and 65-kDa FN fragments. These results indicate that metabolism of FN and excretion of the FN metabolites into urine may be changed during the development of the renal disease.
