Abstract:
Objective To observe the correlation between the C-myc expression and pathologic lesions of kidney to explore the role of C-myc re-expression in children's primary nephrotic syndrome(CPNS). Methods The C-myc expression of renal tissue in 30 cases of CPNS was detected using immunohistochemical method, and the correlation between C-myc expression and renal pathological lesions was analyzed. Results There were various degrees of C-myc positive staining in the renal tissue of all patients with CPNS, while no C-myc positive expression in the renal tissue of control group. C-myc expression was mainly located in podocytes and less in endothelial cells of glomeruli. There was high level of C-myc expression in nephric tubules, especially in proximate tubules. There was no C-myc expression in the Henle's loop,tubulous matrix and vessel areas. There was no obvious difference in C-myc expression level in the podocytes and proximate tubules among the different pathological types of CPNS. The level of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis(FSGS) in proximate tubules obviously reduced compared with mesangil proliferative glomerulonephritis(MsPGN) and minimal change disease(MCD)(P
