3. At the beginning of the last century:
Postulated that the disease resulted
from antibodies that instead of having
beneficial effects were pathogenic, an
insight that constitutes a landmark
that opened the field of immune-mediated
renal disease.1

7. Post-streptococcal Glomerulonephritis
Nephritogenic strains of group A Streptococcus pyogenes
Streptococcal
impetigo of M types
47, 49, 55, and 57
Throat infections with
streptococcus
types 1, 2, 4, and 12
4–6 weeks 7–15 days
Nephritis

9. Post-streptococcal Glomerulonephritis
Pathogenesis
Streptococcal
Infection
Streptococcal
proteinase
exotoxin B (SPEB)
Development of
circulating
immune complexes
Deposited
subendothelial and
mesangial locations
Initiate an inflammation
(local complement activation
and the recruitment of
neutrophils and monocytes
macrophages)
Cationic antigens or
dissociation of immune
complexes into the
outer aspect of the
glomerular basement
membrane
10. Post-streptococcal Glomerulonephritis
Pathogenesis
Streptococcal
Infection
Streptococcal
proteinase
exotoxin B (SPEB)
Nephritis-associated
plasmin
receptor (NAPLr)
A local direct mechanism of glomerular inflammatory damage
it is not co-localized with complement or immunoglobulin
Development of
circulating
immune complexes
16. Post-streptococcal Glomerulonephritis
Important Clinical Points
If decreased C3 levels lasted for more than a month (suggests
lupus or hypocomplementemic MPGN)
Mild proteinuria (<500 mg/day) and microscopic
hematuria may persist for up to 1 year
21. Endocarditis
Renal Presentation (other than GN)
Infective
Endocarditis
High Cr at presentation,
which improves on
antibiotics
Proteinuria/Hematuria
Low complement
+ve RF and cryoglobulins
GN
Increased Cr
over time with
antibiotic use
Acute interstitial
nephritis
Toxic ATN
Acute unilateral
flank pain /
frank hematuria
Renal emboli
24. Shunt Nephritis
Infected atrioventricular shunts; this
may occur 2 months to many years after
insertion
- S. Epidermidis and S. aureus
- Less frequently Propionibacterium acnes,
diphtheroids, Pseudomonas, or Serratia.
ventriculoperitoneal shunts are rarely
complicated with GN.
26. Shunt Nephritis
Pathology
IgM, IgG, and C3 deposits are present in the glomerular capillary
and mesangium.
27. Shunt Nephritis
Management
prompt removal of the infected atrioventricular
shunt, which is usually replaced by
a ventriculoperitoneal shunt.

29. Viral Infection Related Glomerulopathy
General Pathogenesis
Pathogenetic
mechanisms
deposition
of
exogenous
immune
complexes
in situ
formation
of immune
complexes
autoantibody
formation
directed to
endogenous
antigen
modified by
viral injury
virus-induced release
of proinflammatory
cytokines, chemokines,
adhesion molecules,
and growth factors; and
direct cytopathic effects
of viral proteins
30. Hepatitis B Virus–Associated Renal
Disease
HBV & The
Kidney
Membranous
Nephropathy
MPGN
Mesangial
Proliferative
GN
Polyarteritis
Nodosa
31. Hepatitis B Virus–Associated Renal
Disease
HBV & The
Kidney
Membranous
Nephropathy
• MN may occur in chronic HBV carriers
Mesangial
• Nephrotic
Proliferative
Polyarteritis
MPGN
• Often have impaired Glomerulonep
renal function
Nodosa
• Clinically apparent liver hritis
disease
• C3 and C4 levels are decreased in 20% to 50%
• Mesangial immune deposits may also be
present
32. Hepatitis B Virus–Associated Renal
Disease
HBV & The
Kidney
Membranous
Nephropathy
MPGN
• Type 1 MPGN
• the most common glomerular
Mesangial
Proliferative
Glomerulonep
hritis
Polyarteritis
Nodosa
lesion in adult HBV carriers
• Cryoglobulinemia
• Chronic liver disease (may be
clinically asymptomatic)
• Nephrotic or non nephrotic
proteinuria, often associated
with microhematuria
33. Hepatitis B Virus–Associated Renal
Disease
HBV & The
Kidney
Membranous
Nephropathy
MPGN
Mesangial
Proliferative
GN
Polyarteritis
Nodosa
• IgA Deposits
• It is a consequence of chronic
liver disease with impaired
clearance of IgA circulating
immune complexes
34. Hepatitis C Virus–Associated Renal
Disease
HCV & The Kidney
MPGN
with or
without
cryoglobu
linemia
MN

FSGS
(especially in
African
Americans)
TMA with
