How should membranous nephropathy be treated?

Hormone therapy membranous nephropathy effect is not ideal, because starting from the third period, protein is not the main reason for the leakage complement and immune complex caused by inflammation, but glomerular filtration barrier damage caused by the damaged foot cells, basement membrane thickening.
Hormone is the main function of inhibiting the inflammatory response to abnormal changes of cells and basement membrane. It can only slightly reduce renal cell permeability, but in the case of a large number of protein leakage, having small effect.
How should membranous nephropathy be treated?
At this time, treatment should be divided into two aspects:
First, step up efforts to suppress inflammation
A common approach is to increase other immunosuppressants, which are intended to suppress existing inflammatory responses and minimize damage to kidney units.
Second, enhance the activity of remaining kidney units
Due to kidney itself are two capillaries, dilate blood vessels and improve blood circulation, effectively help the nephron get enough nutrients, especially for those who are affected by inflammation and the renal unit temporarily stop working, having obvious activation function.
