The Role of Renal PLA2R Staining Combined with Serum PLA2R Antibody in Membranous Nephropathy Risk Stratification

open access: yes, 2023
Background: This study aimed to examine the clinicopathological profiles and prognosis of membranous nephropathy in different subtypes classified by serum PLA2R antibody (SAb) and glomerular PLA2R antigen staining (GAg).

Complement activation products in the circulation and urine of primary membranous nephropathy

open access: yesBMC Nephrology, 2019
Background Complement activation plays a substantial role in the pathogenesis of primary membranous nephropathy (pMN). C5b-9, C3c, MBL, and factor B have been documented in the subepithelial immune deposits. However, the changing of complement activation

Outcomes of primary membranous nephropathy based on serum anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies and glomerular phospholipase A2 receptor antigen status: a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesRenal Failure, 2020
Introduction Primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is associated with the anti-phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) antibody in 70% of cases. Some anti-PLA2R-negative patients have the PLA2R antigen in renal tissue.

Secondary Renal Injury and Encephalopathy Syndrome Caused by Systemic Lupus Erythematosus With Overlapping Sjögren’s Syndrome in Children: A Case Report

open access: yesCase Reports in Medicine, Volume 2025, Issue 1, 2025.
Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and Sjögren’s syndrome (SS) are chronic, multisystem disorders. When the two coexist, the manifestations become more complex and diverse, and early diagnosis and treatment are a key to improving the patient prognosis. However, to date, only scarce reports have been published, especially overlap syndrome. We review the

Identification of a Major Epitope Recognized by PLA2R Autoantibodies in Primary Membranous Nephropathy.

open access: yes, 2014
Phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R) is a target autoantigen in 70% of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy. We describe the location of a major epitope in the N-terminal cysteine-rich ricin domain of PLA2R that is recognized by 90% of human ...

Circulating anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies as a diagnostic and prognostic marker in Greek patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy – a retrospective cohort study

open access: yesRomanian Journal of Internal Medicine, 2019
Introduction. Circulating autoantibodies against phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) are recognized as key elements in the pathogenesis of idiopathic membranous nephropathy.

A comparison of chemiluminescent immunoassay and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay for detecting phospholipase A2 receptor antibody in primary membranous nephropathy

open access: yesPractical Laboratory Medicine
Objective: The accurate detection of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) autoantibody is crucial in the diagnosis and monitoring of primary membranous nephropathy (pMN). While enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) is the commonly used detection method,

The anti-PLA2R antibody in membranous nephropathy: what we know and what remains a decade after its discovery

open access: yesKidney International, 2019
The discovery in 2009 of the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) as the primary target in membranous nephropathy (MN) greatly advanced basic and clinical research. Primary MN is now considered a renal-limited autoimmune disease, with antibodies against PLA2R (aPLA2Rab) identified in 70-80 % of patients of various ethnic groups. Although the use of

Supplementary Material for: Serum Anti-PLA2R Antibody Predicts Treatment Outcome in Idiopathic Membranous Nephropathy

open access: yes, 2016
Background: M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) has been identified as the major target antigen in idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). However, the role of glomerular PLA2R (gPLA2R) and the associations of serum anti-PLA2R antibody (sPLA2R-Ab ...
