How Do You Get Purpura Nephritis

2012-01-28 11:12

How Do You Get Purpura NephritisPurpura Nephritis is Chronic Kidney Disease caused by the allergic reaction of capillaries. If untreated or treated ineffectively, it will develop into Renal Failure and even threaten the patients’ life. Therefore, it is very essential for us to know how to get Purpura Nephritis.

Immunologic mechanism plays an important role in Purpura Nephritis. When you touch some allergic allergens like infection, food, insect bite, pollen and so on, these allergic allergens will invade into body as antigens. Afterwards, the antibodies in body are activated to fight against the foreign invaders. However, as your immunity has deficiency, the antibodies fail to protect your body. As a result, a large amount of immune complexes antibodies and antigens will deposit in glomerular mesangial area. Afterwards, the immune complexes can trigger renal inflammatory response thus releasing a lot of inflammatory factors. In return, these inflammatory factors can aggravate the mesangial cells injury. This vicious circle can promote the mesangial cells to synthetize a large amount of extracellular matrix thus leading to glomerulosclerosis and initiate renal fibrosis. Consequently, the phagocytosing and barrier functions of glomerular mesangial cells decrease. Clinically, you will have proteinuria, occult blood and other symptoms.

In conventional therapies, the patients simply receive antianaphylactic treatment. Although they may have certain function in alleviating symptoms, they can not block renal fibrosis. Therefore, they can not treat Purpura Nephritis fundamentally.

In order to prevent further kidney damage, protect the residual renal function and avoid frequent relapse of Purpura Nephritis, the patients need to repair the impaired mesangial cells, remove the immune complexes as well as rebuild their immunity. In this way, the patients with Purpura Nephritis can recover fundamentally.
