3.3 Immunology: Immune mediated renal disease Flashcards
Type I
Anti-Parasite immune response. IgE mast cells. Anaphalaxis. Test: IgE skin test
Type II
Normal Ab response. Antigen is not soluble. Neutrophils and macrophages. IgM and IgG
Type III
Normal Ab response. Antigen is soluble; Complement and FC receptor mediated recruitment Activates Leukocytes.
Immune complexes of circulating antigens and IgM or IgG antibodies deposited in vascular basement membrane
Type IV
Normal cell mediated response (T-Cell)
CD4 T cells: Delayed type hypersensitivity
CD8 CTLs: T cell mediated cytotoxicity
- Macrophage activation cytokine mediated inflammation
- Direct target cell killing cytokine mediated inflammation
Common causes of renal failure
DM, HTN, Immunologic
What type of Hypersensitivies are involved in immune mediated renal disease?
II,III,IV
What part of nephron is involved in immune mediated renal disease?
Glomerulus more than tubules
Nephrotic syndrome vs. Nephritic Syndrome
Nephrotic syndrome: Increased permeability of GBM due to cytokine release: Proteinuria
Nephritic syndrome: Inflammation of glomerulus and neutrophil activation: Hematuris
Innate host defenses
Inflammation; neutrophils attracted
Adaptive immune response
activated LN draining kidney
Pro-inflammatory cytokines
IL-1, IL-6,TNF
Hot t-BONE stEAK
Important interleukin cytokines:
IL-1: fever (hot)
IL-2: T cell stimulator
IL-3: Bone marrow stimulator (sim to GM-CSF)
IL-4: IgE (class switching from IgG), B cell growth
IL-5: IgA, eosinophils
IL-6 aKute renal failure
GM makes classic cars
IgG and IgM activate the classic complement pathway (Ag:Ab complexes –> C1…)
How does activation of immunologic cells occur?
Injury to renal tissues–>Necrosis–>PRR+DAMP–>Activation of PRR expressing renal cell
What are immune complexes?
Ab+ antigens=immune complex
Mechanism for removal of antigens for body
What is the most common mechanisms of immune injury in renal disease?
Immune complexes
Preformed immune complexes?
Ab to circulating antigens
collect between vasc endothelium and glomerular BM
In situ immune complexes
Ab to antigens trapped to epithelial of glomerular space bind to these antigens
MEchanism of IC
Deposit on vessel, kidney glomeruli–>Activate complement–>Recruitment of phagocytes–>Inflamm response–>Enzymes release from neutrophils damage
IC disease (4)
Serum sickness nephritis, Post infectious glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy (Henoch-schonlein purpura), Lupus nephritis (SLE)
C3a, C5a
Anaphylaxis, activation of complement
