Q

ACID

A

Types of hypersensitivity:

Type I: Anaphylactic and Atopic
Type II: Cytotoxic (antibody-mediated)
Type III: Immune complex
Type IV: Delayed (cell mediated) T cell

22
Q

Post infectious glomerulonephritis. Associated ab?

A

10-14 days post strep throat
ab to ASO, DNAase B, Hyaluronidase

Urine dysmorphi red blood cells, RBC casts; little protein

23
Q

IF of post infectious glomerulonephritis with granular appearance

A

granular, lumpy humpy, antibody IgG is not directed against a component of kidney

24
Q

IgA nephropathy

A

Characterized by glomerular IgA deposits; Antigen not known- often follows pharnygitis

Complement by alt pathway

25
Q

Systemic Lupus Erythematous

A

Autoimmune, chronic inflamm disorder, immune complex mediated, nuclear antigens (ANA; anti-dsDNA)

26
Q

Lupus Nephritis

A

Granular Ig deposits
Ab reacts with kidney antigen
Ag-Ab complexes aggregated with C3, C4, C1q

27
Q

Antibody mediated disease: Anti-GBM disease (good pasture) Characteristic

A

Glomerulonephritis+ pulmonary hemorrhage

28
Q

Goodpasture IF

A

Linear staining of BM

29
Q

Antigen of goodpasture

A

Type IV collagen

30
Q

Triggers for goodpasture

A

Genetics, exposure to hydrocarbons or influenza infection

31
Q

ANCA associated Nephropathies

A

Small vessel vasculitidies: Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies

Churg-Strauss syndrome (p-ANCA- perinuclear)
Wegeners granulomatosus (c-ANCA- cytoplasmic)
Microscopic polyangitis (p-ANCA)
32
Q

Mechanism of ANCA

A

ab to PR3 or to MPO activate neutrophils to relase reactive oxygen species, lysosomal enzymes and chemokines which initiate an inflammatory response and damage endothelial cells

33
Q

Myeloma Kidney

A

Monoclonal immunoglobulin deposition disease.

Uncontrolled prolif of a single clone of B cells resulting in synthesis and secretion of monoclonal Ig or Ig fragments.

34
Q

Bence Jones Proteins

A

Monoclonal light chains

35
Q

Myeloma kidney lesions

A

Interstitial protein casts located in distal nephron and collecting tubules.

Casts are surrounded by macrophages
Casts block system leading to tubular atrophy, interstitial fibrosis and calcification
Casts consist of B-J proteins coaggregated with Tamm Horsfall proteins (uromodulin) produced by cells in loop of henle

36
Q

T cell mediated disease

A

Minimal change nephrotic syndrome.

Tubulointerstitial nephritis

37
Q

Minimal change nephrotic syndrome

A

No immunoglobulin or complement seen on IF.

Common in kids

Respond to steroids and cyclophosamide

38
Q

Tubulointerstitial Nephritis

A

inflammatory change due to infection or drugs

Oliguria and acute renal impairment

Interstitial tissue infiltrated granulocytes, mononuclear cells and eosinophils

Granuloma formation suggests T cell mediated etiologies–>Type IV
