Predictors of renal allograft histologic damage progression.
The objective of this study was to analyze factors that are involved in the progression of renal allograft damage in the first 6 mo after transplantation. Donor and 6-mo protocol biopsies of 83 patients who received a renal transplant were classified using the Chronic Allograft Damage Index (CADI). Histologic changes were compared and correlated to clinical parameters at transplantation, at 6 m...
متن کاملPathophysiology and treatment options of chronic renal allograft damage.
Chronic rejection is a poorly understood entity albeit a frequent cause of graft failure. Despite the advent of new immunosuppressive agents, neither the slope of graft destruction nor the frequency is ameliorated. There are a number of hypothesis which try to explain the conundrum of chronic graft destruction: ongoing rejection, antibody-mediated rejection, poor choice of organs, hyperfiltrati...
متن کاملGlomerular damage as a predictor of renal allograft loss.
Interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy (IF/TA) are the most common cause of renal graft failure. Chronic transplant glomerulopathy (CTG) is present in approximately 1.5-3.0% of all renal grafts. We retrospectively studied the contribution of CTG and recurrent post-transplant glomerulopathies (RGN) to graft loss. We analyzed 123 patients with chronic renal allograft dysfunction and divided th...
متن کاملPredictors of postoperative renal functional damage after nephron-sparing surgery
BACKGROUND Although nephron-sparing surgery has been reported not to affect total renal function, it is a non-negligible fact that functional damage of the operated kidney usually results, for various reasons. This study aimed to explore the effects of preoperative baseline characteristics, tumor characteristics, and function protection methods on postoperative renal damage. METHODS This stud...
متن کاملSoluble betaglycan reduces renal damage progression in db/db mice.
Transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) is a key mediator in the pathogenesis of renal diseases. Betaglycan, also known as the type III TGF-beta receptor, regulates TGF-beta action by modulating its access to the type I and II receptors. Betaglycan potentiates TGF-beta; however, soluble betaglycan, which is produced by the shedding of the membrane-bound receptor, is a potent antagonist of TG...
