Immunotherapy for Child Nephritis

Nephritis is a common disease among children. It often occurs after streptococcal infection flowed by hematuria, edema and hypertension. Although the conservative hormone has certain effect in relieving the symptoms of Child Nephritis, it is very susceptible to relapse. Therefore, frequent relapse of Child Nephritis becomes the most concerned problem by the parents and doctors. Then how to treat Child Nephritis fundamentally and avoid its relapse? Here immunotherapy is recommended to the parents for the treatment of Child Nephritis.

Autoimmune deficiency plays the main role in the incidence of Child Nephritis. When the etiological agents invade into body, the antibodies fail to function well to defeat them. As a result, the antigens bind with the antibodies to form immune complexes and deposit in glomeruli. The body will do their best to remove the immune complexes thus leading to a series of immune inflammatory response. If the immune inflammatory response occurs excessively, it will do much damage to glomeruli and lead to glomerular inflammation. If the inflammatory response is not inhibited, the damage to renal cells and tissues will go on persistently. The conventional hormonetherapy can inhibit the abnormal inflammatory response temporarily. However, once the children encounter inducements, they will trigger the Child Nephritis again. That is because the underlying causes of Child Nephritis-immune complexes have not been cleared up yet. It is very susceptible to cause new damage to renal tissues and cells. The application of immunotherapy makes the effective treatment of Child Nephritis come true.

Removing immune complexes in glomeruli and protecting further damage to kidney are two important processes of immunotherapy.

1. Traditional Chinese herbal medicines have anticoagulation, anti-inflammation and dilation of blood vessels function. They can widen renal arteries and improve the blood circulation. This creates a favorable excretion channel for the immune complexes.

2. Traditional Chinese medicines can degrade the immune complexes. Afterwards, the degraded immune complexes will be passed out into urine. As a result, the underlying cause of Child Nephritis is removed.

3. By the integrant application of Immunotherapy, the medicines protecting renal tissues and cells as well as Chinese herbal medicines, they can repair the damaged cells and replace the necrotic ones so as to improve the renal function fundamentally.

Immunotherapy as a new therapy has showed its enormous effect on the treatment of Child Nephritis and brings infinite hope for the children.
