Lupus Nephritis: Causes, Symptoms and Treatment

Lupus Nephritis (LN) is one of serious complications of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). SLE is an autoimmune disease. This means there is a problem with the body’s immune system.

Lupus Nephritis causes

Lupus Nephritis is caused by autoimmune disorder or abnormality. In normal cases, the immune system helps protect the human body from infections or harmful substances. However, in some cases, the immunity is activated improperly and it can not tell the difference between harmful and healthy ones. When pathogenic microorganisms invade into body, the autoimmunity is activated to fight against them. However, as the immune system is disordered, the immune complexes C3, IgG, IgM etc deposit in the glomerular epithelial cells. The body initiates an inflammatory response to remove the immune complexes. As a result the inflammation damages the glomeruli and impairs the kidney function leading to Lupus Nephritis.
