Serum beta-2 Microglobulin, an endogenous marker for renal function, has been shown to be an independent predictor of mortality in older adults. The characteristics of B2M make it useful as a tumor marker for some blood cell cancers, for detecting kidney damage, and for distinguishing between glomerular and tubular disorders of the kidney. It is not diagnostic for a specific disease, but it gives the doctor additional information about someone's likely prognosis and about the health of their kidneys.
