Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]

Kidney International, 2003
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.

The Mayo Clinic consensus report on membranous nephropathy; a promising step toward better treating the disease [PDF]

Journal of Nephropharmacology
Membranous nephropathy is an immune complex disease caused by subepithelial deposits. The pathological manifestations of membranous nephropathy are considered by the creation of immune complexes in the epithelial cells of the glomerular basement membrane.

Glomerular Basement Membrane Changes in Hereditary Glomerular Diseases

Kidney and Blood Pressure Research, 1980
Ultrastructural glomerular basement membrane changes are present in most hereditary glomerular diseases: thick and thin basement membrane with splitting of the lamina densa in Alport’s syndrome, thin basement membrane in familial benign essential hematuria, and thick basement membrane with the presence of collagen-like fibrils in the nail-patella ...

The Glomerular Basement Membrane [PDF]

, 1981
The basement membrane of the glomerular capillaries of the mammalian kidney has been a favorite object for studies on the structure, function, and composition of basement membranes because of its important biological role in glomerular filtration of macromolecules, and because of the relative ease with which it can be isolated for study, free from ...

The glomerular basement membrane as a barrier to albumin [PDF]

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2013
The glomerular basement membrane (GBM) is the central, non-cellular layer of the glomerular filtration barrier that is situated between the two cellular components--fenestrated endothelial cells and interdigitated podocyte foot processes. The GBM is composed primarily of four types of extracellular matrix macromolecule--laminin-521, type IV collagen ...
