Relevance Scn-NGAL levels are markedly upregulated by tissue damage. Scn-NGAL is derived from damaged kidneys. The presence of Scn-NGAL in serum or urine anticipates a severe course for the patient including the need for dialysis and the possibility of death[2]. Structural highlights Scn-NGAL interacts with the making [3]. Water molecules are shown as red spheres. .
