ObjectiveTo construct respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) nephropathy rat model, and to study the multiple mechanisms of nephropathy induced by RSV, including the effects of disequilibrium of elastase (ELA)—a1-antitrypsin (a1-AT), the damage of RSV itself and N-deacetylase/N-sulfotransferase 1 (NDST1) on the kidney, thus providing a new clue for exploring the pathogenesis of minimal change nephrotic syndrome (MCNS) and providing theoretical foundation for therapy.Methods1. Rats were inoculated with 6×102, 104, and 106PFU RSV, and sacrificed on days 4, 8, 14 and 28 postinoculation (RSV4, RSV8, RSV14, RSV28). The renal histology was observed by light microscopy and electron microscopy; the urinary protein and glycosaminoglycans(GAG), serum albumin, cholesterol, urea nitrogen and creatinine were measured; RSV RNA...
