Nephritis Cytotoxic experimental (cytotoxic nephritis, nephritis of immune origin, Masugi nephritis) is a disease caused by the immune system's reaction to a specific antigen, which may be associated with infection, injury or other factor. This disease causes damage to the renal tubules and glomeruli, which can lead to impaired renal function and the development of renal failure.
Cytotoxic nephritis occurs as a result of the immune system reacting to certain antigens, which may be associated with infection, injury, or other factors. During this reaction, immune cells such as T lymphocytes begin to attack kidney cells, causing damage to their structures.
Symptoms of cytotoxic nephritis may include:
– Lower back pain
– Edema
– Increased blood pressure
– Decreased urine volume
– Increased blood creatinine levels
– Decreased glomerular filtration rate
Diagnosis of cytotoxic nephritis may include blood tests, urine tests, and a kidney biopsy. Treatment for cytotoxic nephritis depends on the cause and may include antibiotics, immunosuppressants, and other medications.
Nephrotoxic nephritis is one of the most common kidney diseases that can lead to serious complications and even death. Therefore, it is very important to diagnose and treat this disease in a timely manner.
