Image: Histopathology of a child’s kidney showing one glomerulus (arrow) with matrix expansion and uniform thickening of the basement membrane. The tubules show mild atrophy and the interstitium contains patchy moderate infiltrates. The appearance is consistent with membranous nephropathy (Photo courtesy of Dr. S. K. Pradhan).

Genetic Test Predicts Therapeutic Response in Pediatric Kidney Disease

Genetic mutations in the kidney’s filtration barrier are frequently linked with a lack of response to immunosuppressive treatments among children with sporadic nephrotic syndrome.  More...
