Hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome associated with nephrotic syndrome.
A 21-year-old man was admitted to Kure National Hospital with nephrotic syndrome in September 1996. He had suffered from an intractable pruritic skin rash and recurrent subcutaneous abscesses caused by the hyperimmunoglobulin E syndrome since the age of 18 months. Renal biopsy gave a diagnosis of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis. Steroid therapy decreased urinary protein loss and hypopr...
متن کاملApolipoprotein E and apolipoprotein E receptors: normal biology and roles in Alzheimer disease.
Apolipoprotein E (APOE) genotype is the major genetic risk factor for Alzheimer disease (AD); the ε4 allele increases risk and the ε2 allele is protective. In the central nervous system (CNS), apoE is produced by glial cells, is present in high-density-like lipoproteins, interacts with several receptors that are members of the low-density lipoprotein receptor (LDLR) family, and is a protein tha...
متن کاملApolipoprotein C-III displacement of apolipoprotein E from VLDL: effect of particle size.
ApoC-III and apoE are important determinants of intravascular lipolysis and clearance of triglyceride-rich chylomicrons and VLDL from the blood plasma. Interactions of these two apolipoproteins were studied by adding purified human apoC-III to human plasma at levels observed in hypertriglyceridemic subjects and incubating under specific conditions (2 h, 37 degrees C). As plasma concentrations o...
متن کاملThe apolipoprotein(a) size polymorphism is associated with nephrotic syndrome.
BACKGROUND The atherogenic serum lipoprotein(a) [Lp(a)] is significantly elevated in patients with nephrotic syndrome. The underlying mechanism for this elevation is poorly understood. METHODS We investigated in 207 patients with nondiabetic nephrotic syndrome and 274 controls whether the apolipoprotein(a) [apo(a)] kringle-IV repeat polymorphism explains the elevated Lp(a) levels in these pat...
متن کاملHodgkin's disease--the rare cause of nephrotic syndrome in children.
PURPOSE Hodgkin's disease (HD) is a potentially curable malignant lymphoma with distinct histology, biologic behavior and clinical characteristics. Renal involvement in HD is rare, but it may be underestimated because renal lesions are not the major manifestation of the disease. The pathogenesis of proteinuria in HD remains unknown. CASE REPORT The case of a 17-year-old girl suffering from Ho...
