Post-infectious glomerulonephritis with crescents in adults: a retrospective study
BACKGROUND Crescent formation generally reflects severe glomerular injury. There is sparse literature on post-infectious glomerulonephritis (PIGN) with crescents in adults. This retrospective study looked at nine such cases to see if there is a correlation between the severity of presentation, steroid treatment, histological severity and outcome. METHODS Biopsy reports of all the adults who u...
متن کاملGlomerulonephritis with associated hypocomplementemia and crescents: an unusual case of fibrillary glomerulonephritis.
Fibrillary glomerulonephritis is an unusual, but not rare cause of glomerulonephritis. Hypocomplementemia in association with fibrillary glomerulonephritis has been reported only once previously. A patient with hypocomplementemia and fibrillary deposits as demonstrated by electronmicroscopy is reported. The clinical and pathologic features of fibrillary glomerulonephritis and immunotactoid glom...
متن کاملThe Differentiation of Mononuclear Phagocytes
The in vitro differentiation of homogeneous populations of monocyte-like cells from the unstimulated mouse peritoneal cavity is described. Under the conditions employed, a progressive increase in cell size occurs without significant cell division. This process is characterized morphologically by the accumulation of phase-dense and neutral red-positive granules, mitochondria, and lipid droplets....
متن کاملFunctional Polarization of Mononuclear Phagocytes
Functional Polarization of Mononuclear Phagocytes Mononuclear phagocyte (MP) encompass bone marrow precursor cells and peripheral blood monocytes that, after a very short time (1–2 days), migrate into the different organs and tissues. Under the influence of the different microenvironments, recently migrated monocytes give rise to a variety of MP subtypes, including mucosal macrophages, dendriti...
متن کاملThe in Vitro Differentiation of Mononuclear Phagocytes
Mouse mononuclear phagocytes cultivated in 50 per cent newborn calf serum medium pinocytize actively and form large numbers of phase-dense granules as well as three hydrolytic enzymes. When such cells are then placed in 1 per cent newborn calf serum they illustrate (a) a low level of pinocytic activity, (b) a shrinkage in granule size, and (c) a loss in cell protein, acid phosphatase, beta-gluc...
