Membranous nephropathy is a glomerular disease that may be caused by exogenous risk factors in genetically predisposed individuals (primary MN) or may be associated with other autoimmune diseases, drug exposure, or cytotoxic agents (secondary MN). Primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is an autoimmune disease in which antigens—mainly the phospholipase ...

Alternative Pathway Dysregulation and the Conundrum of Complement Activation by IgG4 Immune Complexes in Membranous Nephropathy [PDF]
Membranous nephropathy (MN), a major cause of nephrotic syndrome, is a non-inflammatory immune kidney disease mediated by IgG antibodies that form glomerular subepithelial immune complexes.

The understanding of cellular and molecular mechanisms involved in the pathogenesis of membranous nephropathy (MN) has come from studies carried out in the Heymann nephritis model of MN in the rat, which closely resembles the clinical and pathologic features of the human disease.

IMMUNODIAGNOSIS IN MEMBRANOUS NEPHROPATHY
One of the diseases leading to chronic end-stage renal disease is membranous nephropathy (MN). The main cause of this disease is the formation of antibodies to foreign and native antigens. Membranous nephropathy can be conventionally divided into 2 types: primary form (when the primary disease is unknown) and secondary form.
