This disease has no symptoms, in general, a new doctor knows about the kidney failure of blood or urine examination.

In a study published in the Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, some scientists say they have found a special marker in the urine can indicate disease of acute renal failure. Through a urine test, it is expected that the disease of acute renal failure can be known from the beginning.

Research has shown that urine samples from humans who suffered from acute renal failure to own elevated levels of monocyte chemoattractant protein-1 (MCP-1) and mRNA (prints for synthetic proteins). In other words is known that genes that encode MCP-1 and mRNA will be active if the patient has suffered acute kidney failure. By using the new method, scientists can show that there is a change in the protein that activates genes that produce MCP-1.

Before the advent of new methods of blood and urine tests done in order to know the number of abnormal levels of waste products that are not normally issued by the blood. At excessive protein in urine is a common sign of kidney nephron damage.
