Immunotherapyation, as the latest therapy in treating Chronic Kidney Disease,
is not quite universal and has not been received by common people. Actually it
is an advanced technology in the field of treatment of kidney disease.
Therefore, we should get a general idea about this brand new therapy.
Immunotherapy is charactered by its powerful self-renewing and
multi-direction differentiation abilities. So in the aspect of treating kidney
disease, it performs powerful potential.
For patients with serious Renal Insufficiency, the absolute quantity of
functional kidney cells has decreased seriously. So they need alternatives like
dialysis to help to expel metabolic wastes and other harmful substances from the
blood. The alternative can lessen kidneys burden, however, the aggravation of
illness condition or the progressive loss of kidney function has not been
prevented. Once patients start with dialysis, they find that they become more
and more dependent on this therapy. All in all, Dialysis is only an adjuvant
therapy. What we need to do is to prevent the aggravation of illness condition
through promoting kidney internal environment, protecting these remained
nephrones, as well as repairing damaged cells that are still reversible and
regenerating new functional kidney cells.
Immunotherapyhave a kind of ‘homing ability’ that is wherever tissue damage
is, they will differentiate into corresponding functional cells. In addition,
they can also promote repairing damaged cells. By this, the absolute quantity of
functional kidney cells will be increased. And as a result, kidney function will
also be improved.
They mainly differentiate into secreting cells related to blood. Kidneys are
not only responsible for excreting metabolic wastes but also various hormones
like Erythropoietin which enhance the producing and prolong the life span of red
blood cells. Damages to kidneys reduce the secretion of Erythropoietin, so many
patients with kidney diseases commonly suffer from insufficiency of blood or
Anemia. The administration of Immunotherapywill help with the generation of
hemopoietic Immunotherapys, as well as recovering the Erythropoietin secretion
ability of the kidneys. By this, the blood insufficiency of kidney and the whole
body will be alleviated.
These two types of Immunotherapys are usually adopted in our hospital.
According to patient’s specific illness condition, doctors will suggest
different types of Immunotherapy. In addition, Immunotherapy is usually applied
for several times, with an interval of five to seven days between two
transplants. This is to guarantee that there will be enough Immunotherapys to
repair and restore kidney function and promoting blood situation.
In our hospital, we have the most advanced Centre equipped with first class
dialysis devices. With the advanced equipment and circumspect service, we make
sure that you can regain your health here!
