Elevated plasma catecholamines in hypertensives with primary glomerular diseases.
Supine plasma concentration of norepinephrine (PNE), epinephrine (PE), and aldosterone (PA), plasma renin activity (PRA), and blood volume (BV) were measured in 25 normotensive and 11 hypertensive patients with biopsy-proven glomerulonephritis who had serum creatinine concentrations of less than 1.6 mg/dl, and in 20 normotensive control subjects. PNE and PE were measured according to the trihyd...
متن کاملComplement and glomerular diseases.
The complement pathway is a central part of the innate immune system and also modulates adaptive immunity. It is implicated in the pathogenesis of glomerular disease by a number of clinical findings. These include the presence of complement components in renal biopsy samples, decreases in circulating levels indicating consumption, the presence of autoantibodies to complement proteins and the as...
متن کاملHeparanase in glomerular diseases.
Heparanase is an endo-beta(1-4)-D-glucuronidase that degrades heparan sulfate (HS) polysaccharide side chains. The role of heparanase in metastasis, angiogenesis, and inflammation has been established. Recent data suggest a role for heparanase in several proteinuric diseases and an increased glomerular heparanase expression is associated with loss of HS in the glomerular basement membrane (GBM)...
متن کاملGlomerular diseases: FSGS.
FSGS is a lesion, not a disease. The separation into primary FSGS (a result of immunologic-mediated injury) versus secondary FSGS (related to a variety of causes) is often difficult. Even when this particular issue is carefully evaluated, the therapeutic implications are not always apparent. Newer literature on both biomarker discovery and on the genetic basis of FSGS is reviewed in this contex...
