Singh S et al. - Kidney biopsy remains a mainstay of LN diagnosis, which is usually prompted by abnormal urinary sediment, proteinuria, or elevated creatinine. Last few decades have seen a tremendous progress being made in understanding the pathogenesis of LN, but a little has been added to armamentarium against LN, leaving physicians with a few choices. Fortunately, with unfolding of molecular processes involved in disease pathogenesis, new targets for drug therapy have emerged. Whether these medications will prove to be more efficacious and less toxic remains a matter of debate and will be answered by several ongoing trials and future studies.
