11Pathophysiology
12Yet to be identified
13Pathophysiology
- ? Charge-selective barrier

glycosaminoglycans - 69 150 kd restricted (i.e. Albumin)
- Loss of charge-selectivity ? MCNS
- ? Size-selective barrier
- Pore size in GMB
- gt 150 kd restricted
- Loss of size-selectivity ? MN
14Pathogenesis Uncertain ?
- Altered T-lymphocyte response
- ?
- Plasma factor ?
- ?
- Podocyte protein expression / function
- ?
- Glomerular capillary wall permeability

- Three common histologies
16Histopathology

- Effacement of podocyte foot process
- 95 steroid-responsive
- 2. Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis 10
- Juxtamedullary segmental scarring
- lt 20 steroid-responsive

- 50 steroid-responsive
17Complications
- ? Infection Spontaneous peritonitis 2 6
- ? Thromboembolic diseases risk of renal vein
thrombosis
18Treatment Goals
- ? Non-specific relieve S/S and secondary effects
- ? Specific immunosuppressive therapy aimed at
modulating the immune component of the disease - ? Minimize complications and those of
immunosuppressive drugs
19Non - Specific Tx

- Pleural effusion, ascites, scrotal edema
- ? Restricted water / salt (lt 2 g/day)
- ? 25 Albumin ivd (1 g/kg/day)
- ? Furosemide (1 2 mg/kg/4hrs)
- ? Monitor vol. depletion, e- disturbance, renal
function
20Specific Tx
- 1. First-line
- Oral corticosteroid
- 2. Second-line
- Pulse methylpredisolone, Cyclophosphamide,
Cyclosporin - 3. Other immunosuppressive agents
- Levamisole, Mycophenolate mofetil
21Oral Corticosteroid
- ? 1 8 y/o steroid-responsive MCNS 87
- Try steroid therapy, hold renal biopsy
- ? Prednisolone (2 mg/kg/day 60 mg/m2/day) po
divided dose - ? Proteinuria (1 or less) for 4 consecutive days
? steroid-responsive - ? 75 MCNS remission by 2 wks
- ? Prednisolone (60 mg/m2/day) qod for 4 wks
22Response to Steroid
- ? Steroid-resistant
- Proteinuria (2 or more) after 1 month of daily
Prednisolone use - Renal biopsy indicated
- ? Steroid-dependent
- Relapse (proteinuria edema) after switching to
or terminating qod Prednisolone Tx -
- ? Frequently relapsing
- gt 2 relapses in 6 months of initial response or
gt 4 relapses in any 12 months - gt 60 relapse in steroid-responsive cases
23Specific Tx
- 1. First-line
- Oral corticosteroid
- 2. Second-line

Cyclosporin - 3. Other immunosuppressive agents
- Levamisole, Mycophenolate mofetil
24Pulse Methylprednisolone
- ? 10 30 mg/kg bolus (Max 1000 mg) iv qod x 6
doses - Weekly pulse x 4 wks
- Every-other-week pulse x 4 doses
- ? Combination with oral corticosteroids,
cyclophosphamide, or cyclosporin - ? Remission rate 64 (27/42) in
steroid-resistant NS by 13.112.5 wks - Kirpekar R, et al., Am J of Kidney Disease,
2002
25Adverse Effects of Steroid

- ? Hypertension
- ? Hyperglycemia
- ? Dyslipidemia
- ? Muscle weakness / fatigability
- ? Infection
26Cyclophosphamide (Endoxan)
- ? Alkylating agent used in C/T
- ? Interferes DNA cross-link covalently
- ? For steroid-resistant / dependent / frequently
relapsing NS - ? 2 2.5 mg/kg/day for 8 12 wks
- ? Combined Prednisolone qod Tx
- ? Remission 25 30 steroid-unresponsive pts
- Eddy A, et al., The Lancet, 2003
27Cyclophosphamide
28Side Effects of Cyclophosphamide
? Myelosuppression 32 ? Hemorrhagic cystitis
2.2 ? Bladder carcinoma ? Alopecia ? Gonadal
toxicity aspermia, amenorrhea Latta K, et al.,
Ped Nephrology, 2001
29Cyclosporin (Sandimmun)
- ? Immunosuppressant for transplantation
- ? Calcineurin inhibitor ?IL-2,IL-3,IL-4, GM-CSF,
TNF-a ? ?T cell proliferation - ? 5 6 mg/kg/day oral Prednisolone use
- ? Remission rate 85 for steroid-responsive NS
- ? Side effects gingival-hyperplasia, hirsutism,
risk of cyclosporin-induced vasculopathy - ? High nephrotoxicity monitor renal function
- Eddy A, et al., The Lancet, 2003
30Cyclosporin
31Cyclosporine
32Specific Tx
- 1. First-line
- Oral corticosteroid
- 2. Second-line
- Pulse methylpredisolone, Cyclophosphamide,
Cyclosporin - 3. Other immunosuppressive agents
- Levamisole, Mycophenolate mofetil
33Mycophenolate Mofetil(CellCept)
- ? Prevents allograft rejection
- ? Suppress de novo purine synthesis
- ?T cell / B cell / smooth muscle cell /
fibroblast proliferation - ? 0.8 1.2 g/m2/day
- ? Leukopenia, GI discomfort, diarrhea, malaise,
splenomegaly - Barletta G, et al., Ped Nephrology, 2003

35MMF
36Levamisole
- ? Antihelmintic drug
- ? Immunomodulatory effect ?
- ? 2.5 mg/kg qod, median 10 months
- ? ?relapse in frequently relapsing NS
- ? Risks of leukopenia, hepatoxity,
agranulocytosis, vasculitis, encephalopathy - Tenbrock K, et al., Ped Nephrology, 1998
37Conclusion
- ? Steroid-responsiveness most important
prognostic factor - ? Oral Prednisolone first-line drug
- ? Alkylating agents, immuno uppressants for
steroid-resistant/dependant, frequently relapsing
nephrotic syndrome - ? Levamisole, MMF require larger trials for
efficacy
