Mitochondrial DNA damage in the renal proxmimal tubual has been attributed to toxic drugs such as tenofovir. Sudden catastrophic renal failure has been documented. A reliable indicator of kidney health will be able to detect such damage as well as renal eithelial cancers.

"Transthyretin and cystatin C are catabolized in proximal tubular epithelial cells and the proteins are not useful as markers for renal cell carcinomas"
