Urinary fatty acid binding protein 3 (uFABP3) is a potential biomarker for peripheral arterial disease
Abstract Plasma levels of fatty acid binding protein 3 (pFABP3) are elevated in patients with peripheral artery disease (PAD). Since the kidney filters FABP3 from circulation, we investigated whether urinary fatty acid binding protein 3 (uFABP3) is associated with PAD, and also explored its potentia...
