Update on New Antigens in the Pathogenesis of Membranous Nephropathy [PDF]
Previously, membranous nephropathies were divided into primary and secondary categories when the exact mechanism or pathogenetic factor were unknown. Approximately 70% accounted for primary membranous nephropathies.

The Mayo Clinic consensus report on membranous nephropathy; a promising step toward better treating the disease [PDF]
Membranous nephropathy is an immune complex disease caused by subepithelial deposits. The pathological manifestations of membranous nephropathy are considered by the creation of immune complexes in the epithelial cells of the glomerular basement membrane.

Primary antiphospholipid syndrome associated with anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibody-positive membranous nephropathy [PDF]
Background The kidney is a major target in primary antiphospholipid syndrome. Several types of nephropathy have been reported, the most frequent being acute or chronic specific vascular nephropathies and membranous nephropathy.

Primary Membranous Nephropathy with Crescents
We present the case of a 46-year-old patient with a history of hypertension, renal biopsy-proven primary membranous nephropathy, and a unique progression. He initially presented with edema and hypertension.

Choroidal Neovascularization in Primary Membranous Nephropathy [PDF]
BACKGROUND We describe the retinal findings in a patient affected by primary membranous nephropathy (MN). CASE REPORT A 61-year-old man presented with a 3-month history of metamorphopsia and decreased visual acuity in both eyes. He was affected by nephrotic syndrome in primary MN and treated with systemic corticosteroids.

Primary membranous nephropathy (pMN) is an auto-immune disease characterized by auto-antibodies targeting podocyte antigens resulting in activation of complement and damage to the glomerular basement membrane.

Membranous nephropathy is a glomerulopathy, which main affected target is the podocyte, and has consequences on the glomerular basement membrane. It is more common in adults, especially over 50 years of age.

Prognostic Factors of Proteinuria Remission in Primary Membranous Nephropathy. [PDF]
Primary membranous nephropathy is a leading cause of nephrotic syndrome in adults, characterized by immune complex deposition in the glomerular basement membrane. Predicting proteinuria remission is essential for guiding treatment decisions, optimizing immunosuppressive therapy, and improving renal outcomes. Traditional prognostic markers, such as anti-
