The document discusses diabetic nephropathy, which is a progressive kidney disease caused by damage to the capillaries in the kidneys' glomeruli due to diabetes. It is characterized by protein in the urine and scarring of the glomeruli. The document outlines the 5 stages of diabetic nephropathy from early microalbuminuria to end-stage kidney disease. It discusses the pathology, risk factors like high blood pressure and hyperglycemia, genetic predispositions, and the role of hemodynamic changes and connective tissue growth factor in the pathogenesis. Improved control of blood sugar and blood pressure can slow the progression of diabetic nephropathy.

IntroductionIntroduction
Diabetic Nephropathy (Nephropatica Diabetica),
also known as kimmelstiel.wilson syndrome
and intercapillary glomerulonephritis is a
progressive kidney disease caused by
angiopathy of capillaries in the kidney
glomeruli.
It is characterized by nephrotic syndrome and
nodular glomerulosclerosis.
Muller. J et al., Pathology. Research and practice. Vol.198 (5): 375, 2017

Diabetic Nephropathy
is the single most common cause of
end stage renal disease (ESRD) in
Europe and USA (25 % to 45 %) of
patient enrolled in ESRD programs.
Nephropathy is a major cause of
illness and death in diabetes and is
associated with high rates of
cardiovascular disease.
Kelly K.J. et al., Am.J. Physiol, 2016
IntroductionIntroduction
5. 5
The syndrome was discovered by
British Clifford Wilson (1906-
1997) and Germany-Born
American physician paul
kimmelstiel (1900-1970) and was
published for the first time in
1936.
HistoryHistory
6. 6
The earliest detectable change in the course of diabetic
nephropathy is a thickening in the glomerulus. At
this stage, the kidney may start allowing more serum
albumin (plasma protein) than the normal in the
urine (albuminuria) and this can be detected by
sensitive medical test for albumin. This stage is called
Microalbuminuria.
Donelly R. et al., J. Hypertes. 21(suppl 1): 7 , 2015
Etiopathology
7. 7
A rise in urinary albumin loss to between 30 to
300 mg/day. Microalbuminuria is a strong
predictor of total and cardiovascular
mortality and cardiovascular morbidity in
diabetic patients. Microalbuminuria has been
proposed as a marker of widespread
endothelial dysfunction that might predispose
individuals to enhanced penetrations in the
arterial wall of atherogenic lipoprotein.
Ochodnicky P. et al., J. Cardiovasc Pharmacol.47: 151 , 2016
Microalbuminuria
8. Risk factor for development of Diabetic
Nephropathy ( risk factors )
Hyperglycemia
Increased blood pressure
Urinary albumin excretion
Increase age
Duration of diabetes
Presence of retinopathy
Smoking
Genetic factors
Increase cholesterol and triglyceride
Male sex
Serum homocysteine levels

CONCLUSIONS:
Higher plasma bradykinin and related peptide concentrations measured
before clinical onset of diabetic nephropathy in persons with T1D were
associated with preservation of glomerular structures, suggesting that
elevations of these kinin concentrations may reflect adaptive responses to
early renal structural changes in diabetic nephropathy.
