MiR-130a-5p prevents angiotensin II-induced podocyte apoptosis by modulating M-type phospholipase A2 receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2018
Podocyte apoptosis is considered as the important element that promotes the development and progress of membranous nephropathy (MN). Unfortunately, the underlying mechanism of podocytes apoptosis in MN remains elusive. We compared the renal expressions of miR-130a-5p and M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) between MN patients (n = 30) and 30 ...

Value of M-type phospholipase A2 receptor in clinical diagnosis and treatment of membranous nephropathy:recent advances and current controversies

open access: yesLinchuang shenzangbing zazhi, 2021
The sensitivity of serum anti-M-type phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies(anti-PLA2 R Abs)is 70%~80% in idiopathic membranous nephropathy and the specificity over 95%.This article reviewed the latest research advances on the pathogenesis,diagnosis ...

Associations between m-type phospholipase A2 receptor,human leukocyte antigen gene polymorphisms and idiopathic membranous nephropathy. [PDF]

open access: yesBioengineered, 2021
Primary membranous nephropathy, also known as idiopathic membranous nephropathy, is an autoimmune disease. As an autoimmune disease, genetic factors are essential in the pathogenesis of IMN. People pay more and more attention to genetics and bioinformatics.

M-type phospholipase A2 receptor as target antigen in idiopathic membranous nephropathy. [PDF]

open access: yesN Engl J Med, 2009
Idiopathic membranous nephropathy, a common form of the nephrotic syndrome, is an antibody-mediated autoimmune glomerular disease. Serologic diagnosis has been elusive because the target antigen is unknown.We performed Western blotting of protein extracts from normal human glomeruli with serum samples from patients with idiopathic or secondary ...

Enhanced expression of the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor in glomeruli correlates with serum receptor antibodies in primary membranous nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesKidney International, 2012
The M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is the major target antigen in idiopathic membranous nephropathy with detectable autoantibodies in the serum of up to 70% of patients. In retrospective studies, the PLA2R-autoantibody titer in the serum was sometimes negative indicating their measurement alone may be inconclusive.

Activation of Cytokine Production by Secreted Phospholipase A2 in Human Lung Macrophages Expressing the M-Type Receptor [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2005
Abstract Secreted phospholipases A2 (sPLA2) are enzymes released in plasma and extracellular fluids during inflammatory diseases. Because human group IB and X sPLA2s are expressed in the lung, we examined their effects on primary human lung macrophages (HLM).

Spontaneous inferior epigastric artery hemorrhage in a COVID-19 patient with membranous nephropathy on anticoagulant therapy: a Case Report [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine
BackgroundThe management of Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) is complicated by coagulopathies that increase both thrombotic and hemorrhagic risks, particularly in patients with comorbidities such as membranous nephropathy (MN) who require ...

PLA2R-IgG4 antibody as a predictive biomarker of treatment effectiveness and prognostic evaluation in patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy: a retrospective study [PDF]

open access: yesPeerJ, 2022
Background The Kidney Disease Improving Global Outcomes (KDIGO) 2021 guidelines recommend Rituximab (RTX) as the first-line therapy and phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody as a biomarker for remission and prognosis in patients with idiopathic ...

Association of The Autoantibodies to M-Type Phospholipase A2 Receptor Titer with Clinical Characteristics and Outcome of Patients with Primary Membranous Nephropathy – 5-Year Follow up Study

open access: yesActa Clinica Croatica, 2021
Introduction: primary membranous nephropathy (pMN) is glomerulopathy caused in the majority of cases by autoantibodies to Phospholipase-A2 receptors (PLA2R-AB).
