Abstract

Methylprednisolone increased the content of laminine, cyclosporin increased the content of fibronectin, and cyclophosphamide suppressed the extracellular matrix production in experimental nephrotoxic nephritis and puromycin aminonucleoside nephrosis. Therapy should be chosen with due consideration of the extracellular matrix structure in different morphological variants of chronic glomerulonephritis.
