Make your Deposit: A Case of IgA-dominant Infection-associated Glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Glomerular injury secondary to infection is a well-documented phenomenon. While the incidence of classic acute post-streptococcal glomerulonephritis (APIGN) has declined in developed countries over the past few decades, IgA-dominant infection-associated ...

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) associated glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Immunoglobulin A (IgA) associated glomerulonephritis. Adequate tissue from 153 glomerulonephritic patients was examined by direct immunofluorescence for glomerular-bound immunoglobulins, β1C, and fibrinogen. Ninety-six specimens contained immunoglobulins; 15 (16%) that contained significant amounts of IgA were from patients without systemic lupus ...

Staphylococcus aureus Infection-Related Glomerulonephritis with Dominant IgA Deposition
Since 1995, when we reported the case of a patient with glomerulonephritis with IgA deposition that occurred after a methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) infection, many reports of MRSA infection-associated glomerulonephritis have ...
