A Trial of Complement Inhibition in a Patient with Cryoglobulin-Induced Glomerulonephritis
Cryoglobulinemia induces an immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis that is characterized by the presence of large immune deposits, including complement C3 and C5b-9, marked macrophage influx and mesangial cell proliferation. The precise role of complement in cryoglobulin-induced glomerulonephritis in humans remains unclear, whereas in mice there has been evidence that complement activation ...
متن کاملThe role of complement in cryoglobulin-induced immune complex glomerulonephritis.
Many forms of glomerulonephritis are triggered by Ab localization in the glomerulus, but the mechanisms by which this induces glomerular inflammation are not fully understood. In this study we investigated the role of complement in a mouse model of cryoglobulin-induced immune complex glomerulonephritis. Several complement-deficient mice on a C57BL/6 and BALB/c genetic background were used and c...
متن کاملdisseminated strongyloidiasis in a patient with membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis-case report.
strongyloides stercoralis (ss) is a unique nematode with an auto infective cycle, so that it completes its life cycle within the human host and can live there for many years. in immunocompromised patients, infection can cause strongyloides hyperinfection syndrome (s.h.s) that is associated with serious morbidity and mortality. as vari-ous infections are one of the leading causes of membranoprol...
متن کاملa swot analysis of the english program of a bilingual school in iran
با توجه به جایگاه زبان انگلیسی به عنوان زبانی بین المللی و با در نظر گرفتن این واقعیت که دولت ها و مسئولان آموزش و پرورش در سراسر جهان در حال حاضر احساس نیاز به ایجاد موقعیتی برای کودکان جهت یاد گیری زبان انگلیسی درسنین پایین در مدارس دو زبانه می کنند، تحقیق حاضر با استفاده از مدل swot (قوت ها، ضعف ها، فرصتها و تهدیدها) سعی در ارزیابی مدرسه ای دو زبانه در ایران را دارد. جهت انجام این تحقیق در م...
15 صفحه اولOverexpression of complement inhibitor Crry does not prevent cryoglobulin-associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
BACKGROUND Mice overexpressing thymic stromal lymphopoietin (TSLP) develop mixed cryoglobulinemia with renal disease closely resembling human cryoglobulin-associated membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), including glomerular deposits of immunoglobulins and complement. We assessed the effect of complement inhibition through overexpression of Crry (complement receptor-1 related gene/pr...
