Medical history (I) Medical history (I) of a 46-year-old womanof a 46-year-old woman
2nd kidney biopsy in 2006 (age 46)2nd kidney biopsy in 2006 (age 46)
Medulla and cortex with 14 glomeruli
LM: Widespread global (8/14) and segmental (1/14) glomerulosclerosisFocal (25%) interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophyModerate arteriosclerosis and arteriolosclerosis
IF: Glom mesangial IgG, IgM and C3 in traces () EM: Traces of dissolved mesangial and subepithelial
deposits. No features of active lupus nephritis. A variety of cytoplasmic inclusions in renal cells
Dg.: 1. Class I lupus nephritis resolved (Class IVG (C)?) 2. FSGS, coincidental drug-induced?

2nd kidney biopsy in 2006 (age 46) CONCLUSION
EM: Numerous myelin- and zebra-like lamellar cytoplasmic inclusions, irregularly distributed in variety of renal cells are ultrastructural features compatible with those of Fabry disease, particularly in heterozygous woman. However, additional findings of peculiar curvilinear bodies, convincibly demonstrated in vascular smooth muscle cells and one of the glomerular mesangial cells are highly suggestive of iatrogenic chloroquine-induced renal phospholipidosis.
Skin biopsy – EM
First skeletal muscle biopsy – EM
Second skeletal muscle biopsy – EM (6 months after chloroquine withdrawal)
Skin and skeletal muscle biopsies (age 46)
EM: Myelin-like and occasionally zebra-like lamellar cytoplasmic inclusions were demonstrated in the sarcoplasm of myofibers and in a variety of cells in the skin biopsy.
Associated curvilinear cytoplasmic bodies, present in abundance in the sarcoplasm of myofibers and to lesser extent in the vascular smooth muscle cells.
Complete clearance of lamellar inclusions but remnants of curvilinear bodies in follow-up skeletal muscle biopsy six months after chloroquine withdrawal.
Curvilinear cytoplasmic inclusions in addition to myeloid and zebra bodies
Slowly progressive renal insufficiency and biopsy proven nephrosclerosis could much easier be ascribed to chloroquine in cumulative dose of 413 g than to SLE being in remission
Considerable improvement of renal function and clearance of lamellar bodies from skeletal muscle after 6 months of discontinuation of chloroquine therapy
Absence of ultrastructural features of Fabry disease in the first renal biopsy
Lack of family history of Fabry disease Peripheral leukocyte testing for -galactosidase A
level within normal range and genetic analysis excluding mutation of -galactosidase A gene
Chloroquine side-effects in humans
retinopathy (1959), neuromyopathy (1963), cardiomyopathy (1977), nephropathy (2003) – iatrogenic phospholipidosis shared with more than 50 drugs with different therapeutic actions but all cationic, amphiphilic and lysosomotropic

Tentative mechanisms involved in pathogenesis Tentative mechanisms involved in pathogenesis of chloroquine-induced phospholipidosisof chloroquine-induced phospholipidosis
• Adsorption to plasma membrane and accumulation in lysosomes
• Formation of amphiphilic cationic drug–polar lipid complexes resistant to digestion
• Inhibition of lysosomal enzyme activities through drug-induced increase of pH
• Direct drug induced strong but reversible inhibition of lysosomal phospholipases A and C and possibly other hydrolases
