MON-053 CLINICAL AND PATHOLOGICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF IgA NEPHROPATHY WITH AKD

Association of URG11 and Twist with clinical pathological characteristics and prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy.

BACKGROUND Our previous studies demonstrated that URG11 is involved in hypoxia-induced tubular epithelial-mesenchymal transition and the development of kidney fibrosis in cellular and animal models. The objective of this study was to determine the expression levels of URG11 in kidneys with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), and the association of URG11 with various clinical parameters. METHODS We analys...

Background: IgA nephropathy, a prevalent disease in Asia, is considered the main cause of end stage renal disease among primary glomerular disease. Objective: To determine the frequency of different clinical, histopathological and immunofluorescent characteristics of IgA nephropathy. Methods: Renal biopsies of 376 patients were received for immunofluorescent and for histopathological studies. B...

Clinical Pathological Analysis and Treatment of Iga Nephropathy with a Few Quantity of Renal Crescent Formation

Background: IgA nephropathy was a syndrome of uniform morphology, diverse clinical features and uncertain prognosis, presence of crescents around blood vessels indices the unfavorable long-term prognosis, if the proportion of crescent in glomeruli exceeding ratio of 50%, we give the active treatment of prednisone pulse therapy, but in most condition, IgA nephropathy was diagnosed with a few of ...
