The present invention relates to methods and compositions for monitoring, diagnosis, prognosis, and determination of treatment regimens in subjects suffering from or suspected of having a renal injury. In particular, the invention relates to using assays that detect one or more markers selected from the group consisting of soluble CD44 antigen, Angiopoietin-1, soluble Angiopoietin-1 receptor, C—X—C chemokine motif 5, soluble Endoglin, soluble Tumor-associated calcium signal transducer 1, Erythropoietin, soluble Fractalkine, Heme oxygenase 1, soluble Interleukin-1 receptor type II, soluble Interleukin-6 receptor subunit-alpha, Lymphotactin, Lymphotoxin-alpha, Stromelysin-1, C—C motif chemokine 22, C—C motif chemokine 5, and Thrombospondin-1 as diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers in renal injuries. |
