Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
Human anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare disorder characterized by rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) and lung haemorrhage. However, it is the cause of only about one third of the cases of this clinical syndrome, and lung haemorrhage does not occur in all patients.

Anti-GBM disease with positive serum anti-GBM antibodies but negative IgG deposition: A case report
Anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies are significantly specific for detecting anti-glomerular basement membrane disease. These antibodies are typically targeted against the non-collagenous (NC1) domain of the alpha 3 chain of type IV collagen and,

Antiglomerular Basement Membrane Disease [PDF]
AbstractAntiglomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare but life-threatening autoimmune vasculitis that is characterized by the development of pathogenic autoantibodies to type IV collagen antigens expressed in the glomerular and alveolar basement membranes.

Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease [PDF]
Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM) is a rare but well-characterized cause of glomerulonephritis. It is defined by the presence of autoantibodies directed at specific antigenic targets within the glomerular and/or pulmonary basement membrane.

Rituximab for Anti–Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease [PDF]
Anti–glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disease, characterized by antibodies against the NC1 domain of type IV collagen, presents with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis that advances quickly to end-stage renal disease if not identified and treated in a timely fashion.

Atypical anti-glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease classically presents with aggressive necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis, often with pulmonary hemorrhage. The pathologic hallmark is linear staining of GBMs for deposited immunoglobulin G (IgG), usually accompanied by serum autoantibodies to the collagen IV alpha-3 constituents of GBMs ...

Recurrent, atypical anti-glomerular basement membrane disease
Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (GBM) (Goodpasture's disease) typically presents with acute manifestations of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis often accompanied by lung haemorrhage. Anti-GBM disease is usually monophasic. However, atypical presentations with indolent renal involvement are being increasingly recognized.

Rituximab in anti-glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
The role of rituximab has expanded beyond the treatment of non-Hodgkins lymphoma,1 to include successful management of rheumatoid arthritis,2 systemic lupus erythematosus,3 anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA)-associated vasculitis4 and primary glomerulonephritis.5 Decrease incidence of side-effects or toxicity, coupled with clinical ...

The role of the host—Neutrophil biology
Abstract Neutrophilic polymorphonuclear leukocytes (neutrophils) are myeloid cells packed with lysosomal granules (hence also called granulocytes) that contain a formidable antimicrobial arsenal. They are terminally differentiated cells that play a critical role in acute and chronic inflammation, as well as in the resolution of inflammation and wound ...
