Q

Why corticosteroids work in Minimal change disease?

A

Inhb. NF-KB (transcripton factor for potent cytokines like TNF alpha), Minimal change being related to cytokine release, greatly supress it.

32
Q

Diagnosis

A

Wilson nodules+mesangial expansion+Glomerular basement membrane thickening.

33
Q

Diagnosis

Obtrs. efferent arterioles due to non enzymatic glycation–> afferent arteriole dilation , Further incr pressure->INCR GFR (Hyperfiltration)–>mesangial cell expansion

A

Diabetic Glomerulonephritis

34

Beta 2 microglobulin deposition

A

35
Q

Ass syndrome with amyloidosis

A

Carpal Tunnel synddrome

36
Q

Pathophysiology of carpal tunnel syndrome

A

-entrapment of median nerve–>parasthesia, but sensory is spared due to cutaneous branch enters hand external to carpal tunnel.
-Thenar muscle atrophy .

37
Q

What related secondary nephroticc syndrome (Diabetic and Amyloidosis)

39
Q

Where do you see also Maltose cross?

A

Babbesia and Minimal change disease

40
Q

Effacemnet do you see it where

Crecent shape of RPGN made up off what and what cell proliferates?

A

Membranous Proliferative Type 2

45
Q

What does your nephritic factor do?

A

Overactivates C3 convertase–>depletion of C3 in serum.

46
Q

Diagnosis

Intramembronous deposition of a ribonlike homogenous extremly electron dense material of unknown material.

A

Membranous Proliferative Glomerulonephritis Type 2

47
Q

MPGN ass…

A

Hepatitis C and B.

48
Q

Pathogenesis of Type 1 MPGN..

A

-Chronic infection will promote formation of immune complexes causing deposition sub-Endothelial–>mesangial ingrowth “interposition”–>TRAM-TRACK app
-Activates classical and alternate pathways.
-All due to chronic localization of immune complex.

49
Q

Pattern of deposition in Type 1 MPGN..

A

Mixed Cryoglobulinic Vasculitis(ass with Hepatitis C)

54
Q

Pathogenesis of Mixed Cryoglobulinic Purpura

A

Abn IgG antibodies that agglutinate RBC in cold temp–> small clot formation that may lead to skin cotting (palbable purpura), kidney clotting (glomerulonephritis), joint clotting (arthritis).

55
Q

Pathogenesis of diabetus…

A
56
Q

How does Uncontrolled Diabetus Mellitus cause Hyperfiltration.

A

-non ezymatic glycation of efferent arterioles cause narrow lumen–>decr blood supply to kidney–>afferent arteriole dilation–>combination of both leads to HYPERFILTRATION –>incr glomerular pressure–>glomerulat hyperthrophy+incr capillary surface area

57

A

Lipid peroxidation, Protein oxidative modfification,DNA damage.

59
Q

How does hyperglycemia cause Retinpathy?

A

-by your Advanced Glycated products promoting release of VEGF –>leads to retinopathy.

60

62
Q

What product does hyperglycemia form?
