Summary: | Abstract The 2019 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus type 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has posed a considerable challenge to global healthcare. Acute interstitial nephritis (AIN) post SARS-CoV-2 infection and vaccination has been reported, but its clinical features and pathogenesis remained unclear. We reviewed so far the largest 22 cases of AIN post SARS-CoV-2 infection and 36 cases of AIN following COVID-19 vaccination. The onset of AIN was mainly related to messenger RNA vaccines (52.8%). Apart from fever, proteinuria (45.5%) was the main manifestation of AIN post SARS-CoV-2 infection, left acute kidney injury (AKI, 63.9%) in patients post COVID-19 vaccination. The potential mechanism of vaccination induced AIN was conjugating vaccines with proteins to form a hapten, which activated dendritic cells and promoted a cascade immunological reaction leading to AIN. |
