Nephrobiopsies of 20 patients with drug-induced membranous glomerulonephritis were studied. Renal injury was produced by diuretics (7 patients), gold salts (6), penicillamine (4), captopril (3). Drug-induced membranous glomerulonephritis in contrast to idiopathic one ran a benign course after proper therapy based on discontinuation of the drug. Main pathomorphological features of secondary membranous glomerulonephritis that help to differentiate it from the primary one were established: absence of total injury of the glomeruli, hypercellularity of the damaged glomeruli, pathomorphological changes only of the part of the capillary loops, presence of both subepithelial and mesangial deposits.

D002216	Captopril	A potent and specific inhibitor of PEPTIDYL-DIPEPTIDASE A. It blocks the conversion of ANGIOTENSIN I to ANGIOTENSIN II, a vasoconstrictor and important regulator of arterial blood pressure. Captopril acts to suppress the RENIN-ANGIOTENSIN SYSTEM and inhibits pressure responses to exogenous angiotensin.
