Abstract:
This paper emphasizes the importance of the mechanism of renal tissue damage in conducting treatment of lupus nephritis in addition to the renal histology.There are at least 4 kinds of mechanisms related to the renal tissue damage of LN including circulating immune complex deposition,in situ immune complex formation,vasculitic change and thrombotic mircoangiopathy.Treatment according to the mechanisms of tissue damage will give rise to a much better result as compared with the classic treatment based on morphology alone.Multi-target immune theapy has been recommended for treatment of those severe and complicated LN.
