Urine PLA2R Antibody Detection in Hazard Stratification of PLA2R-Associated Membranous Nephropathy
Context.— M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) is the major autoantigen of membranous nephropathy (MN). As the specific antibodies of MN, the correlation between serum PLA2R antibody (sPLA2R-Ab) levels and PLA2R-associated MN (PMN) risk stratification is still controversial.

Membranous nephropathy (MN) is currently classified as either primary – often associated with positive anti-phospholipase-A2 receptor (PLA2R) autoantibodies – or as secondary – associated with malignancy, infection, medications, or autoimmune disease. We

The Human Biomarker Navigator integrates the disease continuum, biomarker dynamics, cross‐organ biomarker networks, biomarker classification, and technology‐driven paradigms. It maps how biomarkers link multi‐system physiology and pathology across the nervous, respiratory, endocrine, circulatory, immune, digestive, urinary, reproductive, and ...

Introduction: primary membranous nephropathy (pMN) is glomerulopathy caused in the majority of cases by autoantibodies to Phospholipase-A2 receptors (PLA2R-AB).

ABSTRACT Minimal change disease (MCD) frequently relapses, and infection is one of the most common clinical triggers. Arachidonic acid (AA), an inflammatory lipid mediator released during tissue injury and infection, has been implicated in podocyte injury, but its contribution to metabolic dysfunction in MCD remains unclear.

Distinguishing primary from secondary forms of membranous nephropathy (MN) in paraffin-embedded kidney biopsies is challenging. Previous studies have measured the accuracy, sensitivity, and specificity of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) on MN. However,

Associations between anti-M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibodies and disease activity and prognosis have been suggested in primary membranous nephropathy (MN); however, more evidence is needed.

Persistent Haematuria Is Associated With Reduced Kidney Survival in Primary Podocytopathies
ABSTRACT Aim Haematuria is frequently present in podocytopathies, but its significance and prognostic value are not well described. This study aimed to determine the prevalence and association between persistent haematuria and kidney survival in patients with membranous nephropathy (MN), minimal change disease (MCD) and focal segmental ...

Active immunization with recombinant THSD7A in mice induces autoreactive B cell activation and differentiation into CD138+ antibody‐secreting cells, leading to the production of anti‐THSD7A autoantibodies, glomerular immune injury and proteinuria, characteristic of membranous nephropathy. NDP‐MSH treatment modulates the MITF/IRF4 axis in primed B cells,

PD‐L1 is primarily expressed in renal tubules and upregulated in both murine models of AKI and renal biopsy samples from patients with AKI. PD‐L1 can promote adaptive TECs repair through interacting with BRCA1, independent of its canonical immunomodulatory function of T cells, and PD‐L1 supplementation may represent a promising therapeutic strategy for
