    Notes: Summary The third component of the pig complement system (C3) was isolated in hemolytically active form and characterized. The C3 component is a β-globulin with the molecular weight of 191,000 and is composed of 2 non-identical polypeptide chains of Mt 112,000 and 74,000. The isolated C3 can be used for the detection of the C3b receptor on the membranes of heterologous peritoneal macrophages.

    Notes: Abstract Thirteen rabbits received parenteral injections of human serum albumin (HSA) in regular doses and intervals during 6–32 weeks. The antigen load elicited immune responses of variable degree, giving a good correlation with the extent and quality of immune complex (IMC) deposition, as shown by immunological methods, electron and fluorescence microscopy and by histoautoradiography. Morphology of immune deposits (IMD) depended on the composition of the IMC and produced a continuous scale of glomerular involvement, ranging from minimal and focal to massive and diffuse deposition. Probable rudimentary traces of IMD were apparent in the ultrastructure even in animals with negative results of both immunological and immunfluorescence examinations. The relationships are discussed between experimental IMC-induced glomerulopathy on the one hand, and some problems of development and bioptic evaluation of human glomerulonephritis.

    Notes: Abstract Using a modified fibrinogen-uptake (FUT) test, 22 patients were investigated at various intervals after kidney transplantation. Eight of the patients had developed or showed early clinical signs of acute rejection crisis at the time of measurement. Another fourteen patients formed the control group with no evidence of florid rejection process. Comparison of the125I-fibrinogen accumulation in the renal grafts between the two mentioned groups showed clear differences with high statistical significance (p〈0.001). Uptake of labelled fibrinogen was increased in every acute rejection transplant. Histologically the kidneys with increased accumulation of fibrinogen showed extensive deposits of fibrin in blood vessels, glomeruli, intracapillary thrombi and in the interstitium. Except for the limitations discussed in this paper we consider this test to be of a great clinical value in the diagnosis of rejection episodes.

    Notes: Summary A case report of a female patient with Wegener's granulomatosis is presented. After an initial involvement of the upper respiratory tract in the form of a sinusitis, there followed a severe necrotizing bilateral scleritis necessitating the enucleation of the left eye ball. Renal involvement developed as late as 24 months after the onset of the disease and led to renal failure within three months. Throughout the duration of her disease, the patient had joint symptoms in the form of episodes of migratory nondeforming polyarthritis. The administration of corticosteroids alone in daily doses up to 60 mg prednisone failed to control the progression of the disease, while immunosuppressive therapy with cyclophosphamide combined with methylprednisolone pulse therapy and haemodialysis resulted in a marked improvement of renal function and in the subsidence of the ocular and articular symptoms.

    Notes: Abstract In a 39-year-old woman suffering for five years from chronic pyelonephritis with a stationary course, a sudden lethal renal failure occurred after an intercurrent febrile respiratory disease. The autopsy revealed scarred pyelonephritic kidneys with swollen hypertrophic areas. Microscopically, in sclerotic segments the glomeruli either were preserved or exhibited only various stages of vascular atrophy. Outside the pyelonephritic areas, however, massive subacute extra-intracapillary glomerulonephritis with typical “crescents” was apparent. — The role played by preexistent renal lesion in the pathogenesis of glomerulonephritis, and some problems involved in the diagnosis of coexistent glomerulo- and pyelonephritis, are discussed.
