[Cell mediated immunity in a mercury nephrotic syndrome (author's transl)]. 1982

M Normand, and J L Cayotte, and D Chouraqui, and D Fizet

A case of extramembranous glomerulonephritis seen in a patient in contact with mercury diodide is reported. The responsibility of mercury in this occurrence of this nephropathy is confirmed by positive tests exploring cell mediated immunity. The other possible actions of mercury are described: modifications in renal tubular antigen, or in a tissue or serum protein, with antibody production and secondary apparition of immune complexes which deposit in the glomerules.

D007111 Immunity, Cellular Manifestations of the immune response which are mediated by antigen-sensitized T-lymphocytes via lymphokines or direct cytotoxicity. This takes place in the absence of circulating antibody or where antibody plays a subordinate role.

D009404 Nephrotic Syndrome A condition characterized by severe PROTEINURIA, greater than 3.5 g/day in an average adult. The substantial loss of protein in the urine results in complications such as HYPOPROTEINEMIA; generalized EDEMA; HYPERTENSION; and HYPERLIPIDEMIAS. Diseases associated with nephrotic syndrome generally cause chronic kidney dysfunction.
