Role of A20/TNFAIP3 deficiency in lupus nephritis in MRL/lpr mice.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Phosphodiesterase type IV (PDEIV) plays an important role in the immune response and inflammation. However, it is well known that classical PDEIV inhibitors have systemic side effects, so the clinical and chronic use of these agents as therapy for glomerulonephritis is difficult. This study was performed to ...

abstract：BACKGROUND:In patients with autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD), renal cysts grow exponentially. Since remaining renal parenchyma has a capacity to compensate for the loss of glomerular filtration, the glomerular filtration rate (GFR) may be sustained until the disease progresses. The purpose of this s...
