Abstract
One aspect of the technology relates to methods, assays and kits to identify ischemia and ischemic injury, including kidney injury, and are useful in determining efficacy of cancer treatments. In particular, differential phosphorylation of the nucleophosmin (NPM) polypeptide is an early marker of ischemic injuries such as kidney injury, AKI and ischemic renal cell injury. Another aspect of the technology relates to compositions and methods for the treatment of ischemia and kidney injury, including NPM inhibitory agents, including, but not limited to NPM inhibitory peptides for the treatment of ischemia and kidney injury.
