- Abstract
Background.A loss of intestinal glycosaminoglycans (GAGs) has been shown in inflammatory bowel diseases (IBD). Since GAGs are involved in the regulation of renal protein filtration and GAGs disruption is associated with anionic proteinuria, we examined whether changes in the selectivity of renal protein filtration occur in IBD.
