title: [Microspectrophotometric study of the sialomucin content of the glomerular filter in the nephrotic syndrome].
abstract: A microspectrophotometric study of sialomucins in human glomerular filter of the kidney in some diseases was carried out. Sialomucins were detected in paraffine sections stained after Haim, and examined on scanning microspectrophotometer. Lipid nephrosis, secondary amyloidosis, membranous-proliferative glomerulonephritis with the nephrotic syndrome were accompanied by a significant decrease in the amount of sialic acid. No reduction of sialomucins occurred in subacute glomerulonephritis with the nephrotic syndrome. A connection between the selective proteinuria and a decrease of the amount of sialomucins in the glomerulus is suggested.
