Abstract
An object of the present invention is to provide a biomarker capable of determining the onset risk or the stage of diabetic nephropathy (early-stage diabetic nephropathy in particular). Diabetic nephropathy is determined by measuring or quantitatively determining a concentration of phenyl sulfate or a salt thereof (a phenyl sulfate) contained in a biological sample, preferably plasma or urine, collected from a test subject to detect a phenyl sulfate. The present invention exhibits excellent effects particularly for stage determination for stage 1 (pre-nephropathy stage) to stage 3 (overt nephropathy stage), or for determination of onset risk of diabetic nephropathy (diabetic nephropathy at pre-nephropathy stage).
