In addition to measuring the UP/C, we performed SDS‐PAGE and western blotting to determine the expression of albumin, vitamin D‐binding protein (VDBP), retinol‐binding protein (RBP), and Tamm‐Horsfall protein (THP) in urine samples of 49 dogs: healthy (control) dogs (n = 9); and dogs with CKD (n = 40), stratified by stage. This evidence concerns the gene GC and chronic kidney disease.
