[Diabetic glomerulonephritis--the first stage of diabetic glomerulopathy].
20 puncture renal biopsies and 16 pancreatic biopsies from patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus were studied ultrastructurally. The stages in the development of kidney changes depending on the functional state of Langerhans islands B-cells were established. The 1st stage includes signs of segmentary mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis- segmentary increase of the mesangium due to the hypercellularity, variability of the basal membrane thickness in the glomeruli capillaries, leucocytes in the lumen, subendothelial deposits. This stage may be due to the persistence of the etiologic factors(virus), formation of circulating immune complexes, antibodies excess and relative preservation of B-cells and their function. Thinning of the capillary basal membrane, decrease of the mesangial matrix surface, cell destruction are characteristic for the 2nd stage- stage of the mesangiolysis. The duration of disease up to 15 years has no influence on the formation of glomerulosclerosis.
