Management of chronic allograft nephropathy.

چکیده

Chronic renal allograft disease remains a leading cause of graft loss. Immunologic and non-immunologic risk factors are related to its development and may be present before or develop after transplantation. Histological evaluation of renal tissue has an important role in the management, especially for the evaluation of immune activity against the graft and toxicity of immunosuppressive drugs. Management of this condition is generally restricted to changes in the immunosuppressive regimen and the overall control of conditions related to the progression of chronic kidney disease.

Evaluation of Therapeutic Effects of Autologous Bone Marrow Mesenchymal Stem Cells to Prevent the Progression of Chronic Nephropathy in Renal Transplant

Background Chronic allograft nephropathy(CAN)  is one of the most common causes of chronic and end stage renal disease. It  is defined with Mainly tubular atrophy and  interstitial fibrosis and no evidence of any other etiology, or functional disorder that caused at least three months after transplantation . Control of risk factors (HTN,DM,HLP, …) and limiting  usage of calcineurin inhibitors...

Correlation between urine macrophage migration inhibitory factor (MIF)/creatinine ratio and time after kidney transplantation

 Abstract  Background: Despite the long-standing association of macrophage migration inhibitory  factor (MIF) with delayed-type hypersensitivity response, the potential role  of MIF in chronic allograft nephropathy is unknown. The association between upregulation of MIF expression, macrophage and T cell infiltration and the severity of  chronic allograft nephropathy suggests that MIF may be an ...

The Allo-Immunological Injury in Chronic Allograft Nephropathy

Progressive loss of renal allograft function after the first year of kidney transplant is often referred to as chronic rejection, transplant nephropathy, transplant glomerulopathy or chronic allograft nephropathy (CAN) and the use of these terms is often interchangeable. Clinically, it is usually diagnosed by a slowly rising serum creatinine level, increasing proteinuria and worsening hypertens...

Unlocking the code: mining the urinary proteome after renal transplantation.

Diagnosis of transplant dysfunction usually requires kidney biopsy. Sidgel et al. compared urinary proteomics with matched kidney biopsies to develop a biomarker panel to differentiate acute rejection, BK viral nephropathy, and chronic allograft nephropathy. The results suggest that monitoring a panel of urinary peptides may ultimately facilitate noninvasive diagnosis and management of common t...
