Causes of proteinuria

summary

In daily life, I pay more attention to maintenance problems, but recently this time there is a symptom of foam urine, to the hospital examination was found to be caused by high urinary protein, for patients with high proteinuria, do you want to know the cause of urine protein?

Causes of proteinuria

Reason 1: urinary protein has toxic effect on glomerular mesangial cells. After renal failure, a large number of plasma proteins will deposit in glomerular mesangial area. The deposition of these macromolecular substances in mesangial area can cause mesangial cell damage.

Reason 2: urine protein can damage renal tubulointerstitium. A small amount of small molecular protein filtered by normal glomerulus is reabsorbed by epithelial cells close to renal tubules and decomposed in lysosomes. Under pathological condition, glomerular permeability increases and a large amount of plasma protein leaks into renal tubules.

Reason 3: because the root cause of the disease is eliminated, the urine protein and occult blood will gradually decrease until they disappear, and this disappearance will disappear with the eradication of the cause, so it is difficult to appear repeated, of course, there is no rebound of symptoms after drug withdrawal.

matters needing attention

In daily life, patients with high urinary protein can be relieved by dietotherapy. When high urinary protein is found, treatment is needed first. In the treatment of proteinuria and hematuria caused by nephropathy, the key is to treat the "root cause", which is to repair the damaged basement membrane, rather than being blinded by the appearance.
