IgA Nephropathy is a kind of autoimmune disease. If our immunity is low, it is very likely to cause immune disorder especially after getting a fever or infection such as flu. The immune disorder will cause over reaction of immune system. The immune complex will stay in blood circulation and deposit on other organs. Too much immune complex deposited on the golumerular basement membrane and will cause the proliferation and swelling of mesangial cells thus damaging the charge barrier and mechanical barrier. It cannot block the leakage of protein and red blood cells. In treating this disease, we have to first control the immune reaction so as to control IgA Nephritis ( Beger’s Disease).
Most immunesupressants can achieve this effect. However, there is no effective western medicine that can remove the immune complex. If the immune complex remain in the body, whenever we reduce the dose of immunesupressants to stop it, the symptoms will relapse. Only if we remove the immune complex on the basement membrane and repair the damaged mesangial cells, the protein and red blood cells leakage can be stopped fundamentally.
Chinese medicine can regulate the immune reaction and rebuild immune system, so if well treated, the disease will not recur. We are kidney disease specialized hospital and for immune disease like IgA Nephropathy. Chinese Medicine and stem cells are used together to treat this disease on the basis of exact diagnosis. We have to know what kind of immune complex is deposited and the amount and position it deposits exactly. In this way, we can give targeted treatment. While controlling the immune reaction, Chinese medicine will be used for kidney repair and protection.
Chinese Medicine has no reverse effects. Chinese medicine is prevailed as ‘gentle medicine’ which means it won’t cause serious reaction of the body immune system. In addition, through external application, patients can also relieve themselves from taking decocted medicines orally which usually give rise to abnormality of digestive system. The unique function of it is that it can clear away the immune complex in the renal area, thus stopping the immune reaction in kidney for ever, which can also help repair the damaged cells in the kidney.
However, if IgA Nephropathy develops into later stage such as FSGS, etc, it is necessary to treat with stem cell for in FSGS, there have been sclerotic cells and stem cells can differentiate cells which can take their functions.
Now both stem cell and Chinese Medicine become parts of immunotherapy in Kidney Disease Hospital, which also has proved its effects in clinic on IgA Nephropathy( Beger’s Disease).
