Nanoscale protein architecture of the kidney glomerular basement membrane
eLife, 2013 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.

Laminin distribution in developing glomerular basement membranes
Kidney International, 1993 The renal glomerular basement membrane (GMB) separates two distinctly different cell layers: the vascular endothelium, and visceral epithelial podocytes. When initial vascularization of the forming glomerulus takes place during nephrogenesis, the early GBM forms by fusion of a dual basement membrane between endothelial cells and podocytes.

Anti-GBM disease with positive serum anti-GBM antibodies but negative IgG deposition: A case report
SAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2023 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,
