The presence of inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor in the urinary tract was investigated by immunohistochemistry. A positive reaction for inter-alpha-trypsin inhibitor was found in the proximal convoluted tubules of human kidney, probably representing the reabsorbed protein. In addition, inter-alpha-trypsin-inhibitor immunoreactivity was also demonstrated in human and rat mast cells.
