This is the first detailed report of spontaneous remission of late relapsing membranous nephropathy (MN) after previous immunosuppressant‐induced remission. In March 2004, a 52‐year‐old Hispanic male presented with severe nephrotic syndrome with proteinuria of 13 g/24 h. The workup for infectious and autoimmune diseases was unrevealing.

Membranous Nephropathy Secondary to Syphilis
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in the adult population. Although the majority of the cases of MN are without any inciting event, about a third are caused or associated with immune diseases, infectious diseases, and drugs and toxins. There have been very few cases of association of syphilis and MN.

Exostosin‐2 (EXT2)‐associated membranous nephropathy (MN) represents a subgroup of immune complex‐mediated renal diseases, where transplantation may facilitate clearance of immune deposits. We present a successful kidney transplantation from a 19‐year‐old deceased donor with previously undiagnosed EXT2‐associated MN into a 75‐year‐old male recipient ...

HLA Profiles of Patients With Chronic Kidney Disease in Central South Africa
Background The human leucocyte antigen (HLA) complex has been associated with the susceptibility of several hundred human diseases, increasingly so with kidney disease. HLA data are under‐represented in South Africa, and thus, their contribution to disease characterisation remains poorly understood.

Background Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R)–associated membranous nephropathy (MN) is a primary cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults. Modified Guizhi plus Huangqi decoction (MGPHD) has been clinically effective for PLA2R MN. This basic study was designed to investigate the efficacy and mechanisms of MGPHD in treating PLA2R MN.

Autoantibodies to M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) are specific markers of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). They can differentiate IMN from other glomerular diseases and primary from secondary forms of MN.
