Immune Mechanisms in Injury to Glomeruli and Tubulo-Interstitial Tissue

  • Chapter
Urinary System

Part of the book series: Monographs on Pathology of Laboratory Animals ((LABORATORY))

Abstract

At the beginning of this century the idea took form that human glomerular diseases were caused by immunologic mechanisms. Since that time many attempts have been made to induce glomerular diseases and elucidate the pathogenetic mechanisms involved. The study of these experimental models has given an insight into the pathophysiology and underlying immunologic mechanisms of renal disease and glomerular disease in particular.
