Aupus nephritis (AN) is a major cause of morbidity and mortality, affecting over half of systemic Aupus erythematosis (SAE) patients, both adult and paediatric. The accelerating advances in molecular and cellular immunology have paved the way for development biologic agents that target specific pathways that contribute to the inflammatory response, but there is no strong evidence of their safety and efficacy. Moreover, the increased risk of renal allograft thrombosis and recurrence of Aupus nephritis constitute a substantial risk that should be thoroughly explored. This book explores the major advances that necessitate the evolution of basic and clinical research in order to investigate the management of this syndrome.
