Can We Manage Without Biopsy in Membranous Nephropathy With Positive anti-PLA2R Antibodies?

Nefrología (English Edition), 2019
Introduction. Our study compares 2 immunosuppressive strategies to reduce tacrolimus nephrotoxicity and its risk of acute tubular necrosis: delayed introduction of tacrolimus plus thymoglobulin vs initial tacrolimus plus basiliximab on the results of kidney transplant (KT) using type-III donation after circulatory death (III-DCD).

Bilateral drusenoid deposits with subretinal fluid and cystoid macular edema in a serum anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibody positive patient: A case report

Heliyon
Introduction: Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is a major target antigen in idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). IMN was often reported to have retinal vascular abnormalities secondary to hypercoagculability or hypertension.

Antigenic modulation limits the efficacy of anti-CD20 antibodies: implications for antibody selection

, 2010
Rituximab, a monoclonal antibody which targets CD20 on B-cells, is now central to the treatment of a variety of malignant and autoimmune disorders. Despite this success a substantial proportion of B-cell lymphomas are unresponsive or develop resistance ...

Nephrotic Syndrome: Beyond Common Causes

Nephrology, Volume 30, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT We report the case of a 38‐year‐old Caucasian man with well‐controlled HIV on antiretroviral therapy who developed nephrotic syndrome. The patient presented with a maculopapular rash, lymphadenopathy, oral lesions, nasal congestion and bilateral pitting oedema. Laboratory tests revealed hypoalbuminemia, nephrotic range proteinuria and abnormal

Behaviour of non-donor specific antibodies during rapid re-synthesis of donor specific HLA antibodies after antibody incompatible renal transplantation [PDF]

, 2013
Background: HLA directed antibodies play an important role in acute and chronic allograft rejection. During viral infection of a patient with HLA antibodies, the HLA antibody levels may rise even though there is no new immunization with antigen ...

Serum phospholipase A2 receptor antibody is associated with thrombogenesis in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy

Kidney & Blood Pressure Research
Introduction: Patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) are particularly susceptible to thromboembolism (TE). The phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody (Ab) has been indicated to work as an independent risk predictor for venous TE in IMN.
