According to the causes, Nephrotic Syndrome (NS) is divided into three types: primary, secondary and inherited. Primary N belongs to primary glomerular disease, and many conditions can trigger it such as minimal change disease, mesangial proliferative glomerulonephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, and so on. Secondary NS can be caused by purpura nephritis, lupus nephritis, diabetic nephropathy, and so on.
No matter what is the direct cause of Nephrotic Syndrome, it is often accompanied by the deposits of immune complexes and inflammatory reactions within kidneys.
How does Immunotherapy help treat Nephrotic Syndrome?
Immunotherapy is created to focus on treating kidney disease attributed to immune disorder. Through immune blockage, immune tolerance and immune clearance, Immunotherapy can remove pathogenic factors, immune complexes, from the body. Through immune protection, Immunotherapy can protect the remaining kidney functioning tissues and repair kidney filtering structure. Lastly, immune adjustment is applied to normalize immune system, for preventing the relapse of Nephrotic Syndrome. Therefore, this kidney disease can be treated from the root.
