A case of relapsing anti-GBM disease secondary to alemtuzumab therapy. [PDF]
AbstractWe report the first case of relapsing anti-GBM disease secondary to alemtuzumab in a 24-year-old female with relapsing–remitting multiple sclerosis. Initial anti-GBM disease was detected 10 months after alemtuzumab was given and was diagnosed by demonstrating high anti-GBM antibody titers and with a confirmatory kidney biopsy.

Retransplantation in Alport post-transplant anti-GBM disease [PDF]
Post transplant anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease affects up to 5% of patients with Alport's syndrome. Defects in the COL4A5 gene are responsible for most cases, and alpha 5(IV)NC1 is the usual target for alloantibodies. Gene deletions are more commonly associated with this complication than are point mutations.
