Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease superimposed on membranous nephropathy: a case report and review of the literature [PDF]
Introduction Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease is a rare autoimmune disorder characterized by pulmonary hemorrhage, crescentic glomerulonephritis and the presence of circulating anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies.

Complexities of the glomerular basement membrane [PDF]
The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is a key component of the glomerular capillary wall and is essential for kidney filtration. The major components of the GBM include laminins, type IV collagen, nidogens and heparan sulfate proteoglycans. In addition, the GBM harbours a number of other structural and regulatory components and provides a reservoir ...

The glomerular basement membrane [PDF]
The kidney's glomerular filtration barrier consists of two cells-podocytes and endothelial cells-and the glomerular basement membrane (GBM), a specialized extracellular matrix that lies between them. Like all basement membranes, the GBM consists mainly of laminin, type IV collagen, nidogen, and heparan sulfate proteoglycan.

Nanoscale protein architecture of the kidney glomerular basement membrane [PDF]
In multicellular organisms, proteins of the extracellular matrix (ECM) play structural and functional roles in essentially all organs, so understanding ECM protein organization in health and disease remains an important goal.

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.
