Brief Summary:
Idiopathic Nephrotic Syndrome (INS) is a kidney disease characterized by massive proteinuria and hypoalbuminemia. It includes two anatomopathological entities: nephrotic syndrome with minimal glomerular lesions (SNLGM) and primary segmental and focal hyalinosis (PHF). Renal biopsy reveals a fusion of the feet of the podocytes without inflammatory lesions or deposits of immune complexes. Clinical and experimental observations strongly suggest that the immune system and podocyte dysfunction are the two facets of the disease. There are currently no clinical or biological markers to predict the diagnosis of corticosteroid sensitivity, corticosteroid dependence, or risk of recurrence of kidney disease after kidney transplantation. To our knowledge, no prospective studies have been designed to study both immune system alterations and podocyte damage as well as genetic predisposition variants in NIS. Therefore, the use of steroids/immunosuppressive agents is purely empirical with a multitude of side effects.
The objective is to identify and test new therapeutic targets rather than conducting new trials with existing treatments, using either drug candidates or molecules selected by high throughput screening of libraries of repositioning molecules using an appropriate read-out. The biobank may also be used to analyze the effects of conventional treatments on identified new biomarkers. We expect the project to produce original and patentable results with subsequent valuation. Patentability will be anticipated before any publication on the subject. The patent and valorization cells of hospitals, INSERM and Universities will be involved in the results as soon as they are obtained.
