Abstract:
Rituximab (RTX), as a monoclonal antibody of CD20 acting on B cell epitopes, has been applied to the field of kidney since 2005, and has become a research hotspot in the clinical treatment of glomerulonephritis. At present, in addition to its clinical safety and efficacy, some researchers are still committed to explore the mechanism of RTX in the treatment of renal diseases, trying to find out whether there is a specific target in renal tissue. In this paper, the mechanism of RTX in the treatment of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis is reviewed.
