Recurrent FSGS is a risk factor for graft lost: Recurrence of FSGS can occur rapidly, within minutes of transplantation, and can lead to immediate onset of proteinuria and graft dysfunction. Recurrent FSGS is definitively diagnosed with a kidney biopsy. Early kidney biopsies in recurrent FSGS often
RESEARCH PLAN
A: Primary aims:
1. Determine the effect of 4 months of oral galactose administration on the level of FSPF in children with steroid resistant FSGS
2. Determine the effect of 4 months of oral galactose administration on the first morning urine protein to creatinine (urine protein:
Patients with resistant FSGS have persistent proteinuria and a high risk of progression to end stage kidney disease (ESKD). A circulating factor that increases glomerular permeability to albumin (Palb) has been detected in over 50% of these patients. While the molecular identity of the factor has

Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis (FSGS) remains an enigmatic disease despite many years of study. There has been a recent increased incidence of FSGS particularly in African Americans in whom the outcome tends to be worse. In about 30% of patients transplanted for FSGS, the disease recurs and
