ABSTRACT

IgA nephropathy is a kidney disease in which the deposition of IgA-based immune complexes in the mesangial region of the glomerulus is the main pathological feature. It is the most common primary glomerular disease in the world, and it is the main cause of ESRD patients in my country. Because its etiology and pathogenesis are not yet clear, there is currently no unified treatment plan. The drugs commonly used in western medicine to treat IgA nephropathy include angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, angiotensin receptor antagonists, glucocorticoids and other immunosuppressive agents. Traditional Chinese medicine has unique advantages in the treatment of IgA nephropathy. It carries out individualized syndrome differentiation and treatment based on the stage and type of the disease, combined with the personal experience of doctors, and has significant clinical effects. Therefore, we should give full play to the advantages of the integration of Chinese and Western medicine, and intensify the exploration of Chinese and Western medicine treatment options. This article reviews the research progress of IgA nephropathy in traditional Chinese medicine and western medicine.
