Research Abstract |
To clarify the roles of helper T cell in immune complex glomerulonephritis, we induced experimental immune complex glomerulonephritis in Th1/2/17 dominant transgenic mice. Th17 dominant transgenic mice showed higher volume of proteinuria than other mice, and developed crescentic glomerulonephritis. These results suggested that Th17 might play an important role in the development of immune complex glomerulonephritis.
