Pathological Scenario with the Mannose-Binding Lectin in Patients with IgA Nephropathy
A deeper understanding of the mechanism of complement activation may help to elucidate the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Traditionally, the activation of an alternative pathway (AP) has been recognized as an enhancer mechanism of glomerular damage. This paper documents contemporary information concerning the possible pathological mechanisms of the lectin pathway (LP) in the circulatio...
متن کاملmannose-binding lectin serum levels in patients with candiduria
results in this study, 45 (13.4 %) urine samples were positive for candida species (17 males and 28 females). the most common isolated yeast was candida albicans (34%), followed by c. glabrata (32.1%), c. tropicalis (9.4%), other candida species (22.6%), and rhodotorula species (1.9%). the mean serum levels of mbl were 0.85 ± 0.01 ng/ml and 1.02 ± 0.03 ng/ml among candiduric patients and contro...
متن کاملDividing CKD stage 3 into G3a and G3b could better predict the prognosis of IgA nephropathy
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) stage 3 was divided into stage G3a and stage G3b in the 2013 Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes guidelines. Whether it is appropriate to regard 45 mL/min/per 1.73 m2 as the threshold value of G3a/G3b staging and whether dividing CKD stage 3 into G3a/G3b plays a useful role in assessing the prognosis of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) remain unknown. Three...
متن کاملP 144: Sunflower Mannose binding Lectin-Associated Serine Protease Inhibitor-1 (SFMI-1) and -2: Significant Inhibitors of Mannose binding Lectin Pathway which Helps in Multiple Sclerosis Treatment
One of the important parts of innate immunity is complement system that occurs in three different ways; the classic, the alternative and the lectin pathway. The four pattern recognition molecules that have been identified till now are Mannose binding lectin (MBL), a component of lectin pathway, and three ficolins (ficolin1,-2 and -3) which compound to the carbohydrates of the cell surface. MBL ...
متن کاملElevated Serum Levels of Mannose-Binding Lectin and Diabetic Nephropathy in Type 2 Diabetes
OBJECTIVE Inflammation and complement activation initiated by mannose-binding lectin (MBL) may be implicated in the pathogenesis of diabetic vascular complications. We investigated serum MBL levels in type 2 diabetes with diabetic nephropathy (DN) and with persistent normoalbuminuria. METHOD Serum MBL levels were determined in 242 type 2 diabetes with overt nephropathy and 242 type 2 diabetes...
