Anti-glomerular basement membrane disease (anti-GBM) is a well-documented, small vessel vasculitis that is classically associated with glomerulonephritis and alveolitis [1].

Thin glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
Isolated microscopic hematuria that begins in childhood and is of glomerular origin has a rather limited differential diagnosis, with Alport syndrome, IgA nephropathy, and benign familial hematuria as the most prevalent conditions. In a series of 322 children with persistent hematuria for longer than 6 months, biopsies were classified as IgA ...

Activation of Rac-1 and RhoA contributes to podocyte injury in chronic kidney disease [PDF]
Rho-family GTPases like RhoA and Rac-1 are potent regulators of cellular signaling that control gene expression, migration and inflammation. Activation of Rho-GTPases has been linked to podocyte dysfunction, a feature of chronic kidney diseases (CKD). We

Atypical anti-glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
Anti-glomerular basement membrane (anti-GBM) disease classically presents with aggressive necrotizing and crescentic glomerulonephritis, often with pulmonary hemorrhage. The pathologic hallmark is linear staining of GBMs for deposited immunoglobulin G (IgG), usually accompanied by serum autoantibodies to the collagen IV alpha-3 constituents of GBMs ...

Atypical Anti-Glomerular Basement Membrane Disease
La maladie atypique de la membrane basale anti-glomérulaire (anti-GBM) est caractérisée par un dépôt d'immunoglobuline G (IgG) linéaire le long du GBM sans anticorps IgG anti-GBM circulants. Par rapport à la maladie anti-GBM classique, la maladie anti-GBM atypique a tendance à être plus douce avec une évolution plus indolente dans certains cas. De plus,

Urinary peptidomics analysis reveals proteases involved in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Mechanisms underlying the onset and progression of nephropathy in diabetic patients are not fully elucidated. Deregulation of proteolytic systems is a known path leading to disease manifestation, therefore we hypothesized that proteases aberrantly ...

Myo1e impairment results in actin reorganization, podocyte dysfunction, and proteinuria in zebrafish and cultured podocytes. [PDF]
BackgroundPodocytes serve as an important constituent of the glomerular filtration barrier. Recently, we and others identified Myo1e as a key molecular component of the podocyte cytoskeleton.ResultsMyo1e mRNA and protein was expressed in human and mouse ...

TGF-beta 1-induced epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition and therapeutic intervention in diabetic nephropathy [PDF]
Background/Aims: Epithelial-to-mesenchymal cell transformation (EMT) is the trans-differentiation of tubular epithelial cells into myofibroblasts, an event underlying progressive chronic kidney disease in diabetes, resulting in fibrosis.

Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitides is an important cause of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritides (RPGN), and they are classically described as pauci-immune diseases as evidenced by the absence of immune deposits on ...
