Membranous Nephropathy: An Overview

Journal of the American Geriatrics Society, 1975
ABSTRACT Membranous nephropathy (MN) accounts for about 20 percent of cases of the nephrotic syndrome. The importance of renal biopsy in establishing the diagnosis is emphasized. In the great majority of MN patients, no etiologic factor can be discerned.

Pathogenesis of Membranous Nephropathy

Annual Review of Medicine, 1988
Membranous nephropathy is the most common cause of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in adults. Recent studies of the pathogenesis of the sub-epithelial glomerular immune deposits that characterize this disease have revealed new mechanisms of glomerular immune deposit formation involving cell surface antigens and have documented the role of the C5b-9 ...

Membranous Nephropathy

2011
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.

Familial membranous nephropathy.

Journal of nephrology, 1998
Numerous HLA studies suggest that genetic factors play an important role in the development of membranous nephropathy (MN). We studied seven patients with idiopathic MN, from three unrelated families of Italian ancestry. Complement phenotype analysis and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing of HLA class II and of the switch region ...

Milk and Membranous Nephropathy

New England Journal of Medicine, 2011
Membranous nephropathy is a common cause of the nephrotic syndrome in adults, but it is rare in children, and the prognosis is highly variable.1–3 The diagnosis is based on renal-biopsy findings, including characteristic immune-complex deposits along the glomerular basement membranes and thickened capillary walls with projections of basement membrane ...

Membranous Nephropathy and Malignancy

Seminars in Nephrology, 2010
An association between the glomerular disease membranous nephropathy (MN) and malignancy has long been appreciated, but evidence supporting this relationship remains limited, speculative, and, at times, controversial. Reports that the two disease processes often evolve in parallel, as well as the occasional findings of tumor antigens or tumor-reactive ...

Management of membranous nephropathy

Nephrology, 2000
SUMMARY: The Management of membranous nephropathy requires a recognition of its natural history and an ability to predict those pationts with the worst prognosis. Treatment of those at risk of progression with immunosuppressive drugs should be accompanied by additional conservative risk reduction strategies such as dietary protein restriction, blood ...
