What are the Causes Polycystic Kidney Disease Proteinuria

Proteinuria is one of the most common symptoms of Polycystic Kidney Disease (PKD). The degree of proteinuria differs very much according to different patients. While, no matter the proteinuria is serious or slight, it is an important index to analyse the kidney disease. Then what are the causes of proteinuria?

The main cause is that the glomerulus filtration film was damaged, which will lead to the increase of its permeability and the leaking of protein. The pathology process is as following: when various pathology damages lead to the obstacle of renal focal microcirculation, they will cause the ischemia and anemia of the kidney. The condition of ischemia and anemia will lead to the damage of blood capillary endothelial cells and blood capillary. Then the damage of blood capillary will attract the invading of inflammatory cells to the blood circulation system. The inflammatory cells may release the inflammatory factors and start the process of renal fibrosis. The inflammation of kidney will cause the pores on the glomerulus filtration film getting bigger or close. Then the permeability of glomerulus filtration film will increase and the protein will leak out.

Then how can we treat proteinuria? To treat the propeinuria effectively and control the development of disease, we must proceed from the causes of proteinuria. There are two key points for the treatment： First, inactivate the inflammatory factors to prevent from the further damage of glomerulus. Second, repair the damaged renal inherent cells and repair the damaged renal function to prevent from the leaking of protein.

As for the first point, western medicine has good effects to inactive the inflammatory factors. With the treatment, the proteinuria will gradually get better. While, as for the repair of renal cells and renal function, we must use Micro-Chinese Medicine to repair the damaged renal cells and renal function. By the two methods we can treat the disease fundamentally.
