Abstract
Low molecular weight (LMW) proteinurias vary widely in their microprotein composition. In general, there is little correlation between a given microprotein composition and a defined clinical disease (with the exception of the predominant beta-2-microglobulin in Wilson's disease). Free immunoglobulin light chains are a practically invariable component of, and may be the only detectable LMW protein in, 'tubular' proteinuria. The origins and significance of some frequently occurring urinary LMW proteins are discussed.Entities:
