Serum IgE in primary glomerular diseases. 1984

G Lagrue, and J Laurent, and G Hirbec, and J C Ansquer, and C Noirot, and G Laurent, and T Nebout, and S Kestenbaum

Serum IgE was measured by RIST test in 181 adult subjects, with log transformation. In 24 controls the geometric mean was 109 IU/ml, with an upper limit (geometric mean +/- 2 SD) of 460 IU/ml. 157 cases of glomerulonephritis (GN) classified according to light and immunofluorescence microscopy were studied. Serum IgE was significantly elevated in 39 lipoid nephrosis patients (p less than 0.001, with 21 levels greater than 460 IU/ml), 21 focal and segmental glomerulosclerosis (p less than 0.05, with 8 levels greater than 460 IU/ml) and 42 membranous GN (p less than 0.01, with 10 levels greater than 460 IU/ml). In 27 membrano-proliferative GN and 28 IgA GN, serum IgE was not different from controls with respectively 4 and 3 levels greater than 460 IU/ml. In addition, the lipoid nephrosis IgE geometric mean is 493 IU/ml, which is keeping with the high incidence of atopic troubles. The significance of raised serum IgE was discussed.

D009402 Nephrosis, Lipoid A kidney disease with no or minimal histological glomerular changes on light microscopy and with no immune deposits. It is characterized by lipid accumulation in the epithelial cells of KIDNEY TUBULES and in the URINE. Patients usually show NEPHROTIC SYNDROME indicating the presence of PROTEINURIA with accompanying EDEMA.

D005921 Glomerulonephritis Inflammation of the renal glomeruli (KIDNEY GLOMERULUS) that can be classified by the type of glomerular injuries including antibody deposition, complement activation, cellular proliferation, and glomerulosclerosis. These structural and functional abnormalities usually lead to HEMATURIA; PROTEINURIA; HYPERTENSION; and RENAL INSUFFICIENCY. Bright Disease,Kidney Scarring,Glomerulonephritides,Scarring, Kidney
D005923 Glomerulosclerosis, Focal Segmental A clinicopathological syndrome or diagnostic term for a type of glomerular injury that has multiple causes, primary or secondary. Clinical features include PROTEINURIA, reduced GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE, and EDEMA. Kidney biopsy initially indicates focal segmental glomerular consolidation (hyalinosis) or scarring which can progress to globally sclerotic glomeruli leading to eventual KIDNEY FAILURE.
