High impact information on Lupus Nephritis

  • In vivo treatment with a monoclonal antibody to interferon-gamma neither affects the survival nor the incidence of lupus-nephritis in the MRL/lpr-lpr mouse [1].
  • Mouse models of lupus-nephritis have been shown to exhibit increased serum BAFF levels correlating with disease severity, and many autoimmune patients were found to have higher levels of circulating BAFF than healthy volunteers [2].
  • In patients with Lupus-nephritis (LN) the increase of activities of urinary GGT, AP, BGRS, NAG, and CHE was observed, the increase was especially clearly shown in LN-patients with NS [3].
