Glomerulonephritis associated with systemic sclerosis: a case report

open access: yesJournal of Medical Case Reports, 2023
Background Systemic sclerosis is a multiorgan autoimmune disease that can overlap with other rheumatologic disorders; however, co-occurrence with antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis is rare.

Thin glomerular basement membrane disease [PDF]

open access: yesKidney 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 ...

The Glomerular Basement Membrane [PDF]

open access: yes, 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 ...

Membranous nephropathy followed by anti-glomerular basement disease: A case report and review of clinical presentation and treatment

open access: yesSAGE Open Medical Case Reports, 2018
Membranous nephropathy is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults and can be primary or secondary through autoimmune disease, medication, infection, or malignancy.

Glomerular Basement Membrane Protein Expression and the Diagnosis and Prognosis of Autosomal Dominant Alport Syndrome

open access: yesKidney Medicine, 2019
Alport syndrome is a hereditary glomerular nephritis associated with hearing loss and eye abnormalities and is classified as X-linked Alport syndrome, autosomal recessive Alport syndrome, and autosomal dominant Alport syndrome.

ER stress and basement membrane defects combine to cause glomerular and tubular renal disease resulting from Col4a1 mutations in mice

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2016
Collagen IV is a major component of basement membranes, and mutations in COL4A1, which encodes collagen IV alpha chain 1, cause a multisystemic disease encompassing cerebrovascular, eye and kidney defects.

NIBV Induces Incomplete Autophagy via AMPK‐TFEB, Causing Kidney Injury in Chicks

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study reveals that NIBV can inhibit the nuclear translocation of TFEB by suppressing the expression of AMPK, leading to the blockade of autophagolysosomal functions, in turn increasing NIBV replication and triggering severe kidney injury in chicks.

What is new in the management of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis?

open access: yes, 2015
Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) results from severe crescentic damage to glomeruli and leads to irreversible kidney failure if not diagnosed and managed in a timely fashion.

Canagliflozin Alleviates Diabetic Glomerular Endothelial Injury via Melibiose in a Microbiota‐Dependent Manner

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Canagliflozin treatment reshapes the gut microbiota in DKD and elevates levels of melibiose, a metabolite derived from Roseburia intestinalis. Melibiose directly binds to and enhances the enzymatic activity of glyoxalase 1, leading to decreased methylglyoxal accumulation.

Nonenzymatic Glycosylation of Glomerular Basement Membrane

open access: yesKidney and Blood Pressure Research, 1981
To test the hypothesis that increased nonenzymatic glycosylation contributes to the microangiopathic sequelae of diabetes, we examined the interaction of glucose with basement membranes in vivo and in vitro. The level of nonenzymatic glycosylation, determined by hydroxymethylfurfuraldehyde (HMF) generation, in glomerular basement membrane (GMB ...
