Stage-specific action of matrix metalloproteinases influences progressive hereditary kidney disease. [PDF]
, 2006 BackgroundGlomerular basement membrane (GBM), a key component of the blood-filtration apparatus in the in the kidney, is formed through assembly of type IV collagen with laminins, nidogen, and sulfated proteoglycans.

Thin glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]
Kidney International, 2001 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 ...

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 ...
