Permselectivity of the glomerular wall examined with iron compound tracer [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
Rat kidney endothelial cell morphology was examined after introducing iron colloid particles of positive or negative charge to investigate the relationship between the electric charge and permeation through the glomerular capillary.

Antiglomerular Basement Membrane Disease [PDF]

open access: yesSeminars in Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2014
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.

Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease.

open access: yesAmerican Society of Nephrology. Clinical Journal, 2017
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease is a rare small vessel vasculitis that affects the capillary beds of the kidneys and lungs. It is an archetypic autoimmune disease, caused by the development of directly pathogenic autoantibodies ...

Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease: an update on subgroups, pathogenesis and therapies.

open access: yesNephrology, Dialysis and Transplantation, 2018
Most patients with anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease present with rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with or without pulmonary haemorrhage; however, there are several variants and vigilance is necessary to make a correct diagnosis.

Permeation of macromolecules into the renal glomerular basement membrane and capture by the tubules

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 2017
Significance Human kidneys contain ∼2 x 106 glomeruli that produce ∼180 L per day of primary filtrate. Downstream tubules reabsorb most of the water, salt, and desirable low-molecular weight substances, leaving 1 to 2 L per day of urine containing ...
