Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to analyze the safety, renal function, metabolic disorders and quality of life data in patients with focal segmental glomerulosclerosis treated with endovascular infusion of bone marrow derived mononuclear cells.
Detailed Description: Will be studied five patients with progressive chronic kidney disease and estimated clearance between 40 and 20 ml / min. Patients will be followed by clinical and laboratory examination for 3 months prior to the procedure. These previous results serve as a control for comparison with a second time when the same patients receive treatment with stem cells being subsequently followed up for 9 months a total of one year of clinical follow-up.

Bone marrow aspiration and subsequent cell preparation were accomplished on the same day as the endovascular infusion of autologous Bone Marrow derived Mononuclear stem cells (BMDMCs) in both renal arteries. Collection was performed under spinal anesthesia and light sedation, through puncture and repeated aspirations at the posterior iliac crest region. A total of 80 mL of bone marrow aspirate was collected from each patient, and after removal of bone and fatty residues, mononuclear cells were isolated by a Ficoll-Paque Plus (Amersham Biosciences, São Paulo, Brazil).For each patient, 2×107 cells will be labeled with 99mTc. Briefly, 500 μl of sterile SnCl2 solution is added to the cells and the mixture is incubated at room temperature for 10 min. Forty-five millicurie (mCi) of 99mTc is then added and incubation continued for another 10 min. After centrifugation (500×g for 5 min), the supernatant is removed and the cells are washed in saline solution. The pellet will be also resuspended in saline solution. Viability of the labeled cells will be assessed by the trypan blue exclusion test, and estimated to be greater than 93% in all cases.The labeling efficiency (%) will be calculated by the activity in the pellet divided by the sum of the radioactivity in the pellet plus supernatant and estimated to be greater than 90% in all cases.

After the collection of the stem cells, the patient will be submitted to puncture the femoral artery using the Seldinger technique under local anesthesia, followed by catheterization of the ostium of the renal arteries with minimum use of nonionic iodinated contrast. With the routing of diagnostic catheter or guide, the solution numbering about 30 to 100 million of dissolved plasma cells will be divided and injected into two renal arteries. The infusion volume is about 5 ml in each kidney. Whole body and planar scans will be performed 2 and 24h after infusion to determine the migration and cell viability. The patient will remain hospitalized for more 48 hours for clinical monitoring and collection of laboratorial tests.
