Since the first description of tubular proteinuria in 1958, much progress has been made with regard to diagnostic means for detecting small changes in the function of the proximal tubule. Small increases in the excretion of low-molecular-weight proteins can now be determined with great accuracy. Determination of total protein is an economic way of screening large populations but does not give specific information on the type of damage. Determinations of glucose, phosphate and amino acids are relatively insensitive methods, since their excretion is also dependent on diet and nutritional status. Determination of high-molecular-weight enzymes released from damaged tubular cells may be of use for studies of acute as well as chronic effects of nephrotoxic agents, but more data are needed.
