    Abstract:
    Results are compared of glucocorticoid treatment of proliferative, mesangioproliferative and membraneous types of glomerulonephritis with initial levels of T- and B-lymphocytes. Five types of immunodeficiency states were distinguished different frequency of the latter in various types of glomeruli involvement. It was found that glucocorticoid therapy of nephritis is most efficient in cases when the initial number of T-lymphocytes was within normal limits while the content of B-lymphocytes was increased.
