What is the latest treatment for diabetic nephropathy in 2012? Diabetic
nephropathy (nephropatia diabetica), also known as Kimmelstiel-Wilson syndrome,
or nodular diabetic glomerulosclerosis and intercapillary glomerulonephritis, is
a progressive kidney disease caused by angiopathy of capillaries in the kidney
glomeruli. It is due to longstanding diabetes mellitus.
Throughout its early course, diabetic nephropathy has no symptoms. They
develop in late stages and may be a result of excretion of high amounts of
protein in the urine or due to renal failure. So the treatment principle should
focus on slowing its progression and managing high blood pressure (hypertension)
and protein in your urine (proteinuria).
Firstly, slow its progression. As we mentioned above, Diabetic Nephropathy is
a secondary kidney disease which is caused by long time diabetes. So we should
focus on the treatment of diabetes first of all. In type 1 diabetes, the body no
longer makes insulin because the body's own immune system has attacked and
destroyed the cells where insulin is made. The cause of this isn't entirely
clear but it may include genetic risk factors and environmental factors. One
theory is that type 1 diabetes may occur after having a specific virus. Type 2
diabetes is the most common form of diabetes. In type 2 diabetes, the body
either doesn't make enough insulin or can't use its own insulin as well as it
should. The risk of having type 2 diabetes increases as a person gets older.
Stem cell therapy till now is the best therapy to treat diabetes. After stem
cells are injected into patients’ body, they will differentiate like seed, which
will grow in kinds of tissues. A certain amount of autologous stem cell will
differentiate into cells which can replace the damaged pancreas islet B cells
and secrete insulin once again, thus treating diabetes.
Secondly, manage high blood pressure and protein in urine. Chinese Medicine
can make it. On one hand, Chinese Medicine contains active and nutritious herbs,
which can improve blood circulation, including the micro-blood circulation,
dissolve the blood stasis, discharge the thrombus, thus extending blood vessels
including capillary blood vessels. After these, high blood pressure or
hypertension will be decreased. On the other hand, protein in urine is due to
the damage in renal glomerular membrane. The active and nutritious herbs in
Chinese Medicine can also repair the damaged renal glomerular membrane, thus
treating protein in urine.
