Update on New Antigens in the Pathogenesis of Membranous Nephropathy

European Medical Journal, 2022
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.

Primary Membranous Nephropathy [PDF]

Clinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2017
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is a unique glomerular lesion that is the most common cause of idiopathic nephrotic syndrome in nondiabetic white adults. About 80% of cases are renal limited (primary MN, PMN) and 20% are associated with other systemic diseases or exposures (secondary MN). This review focuses only on PMN.

The Mayo Clinic consensus report on membranous nephropathy; a promising step toward better treating the disease [PDF]

Journal of Nephropharmacology
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.

Diabetic nephropathy with primary membranous nephropathy: A case report

Diabetic Nephropathy, 2022
Abstract Diabetic nephropathy (DN) is one of the most common microvascular diseases in diabetes. Primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome (NS) in adults. Incidence of DN and PMN are increasing. DN complicated with PMN is rarely reported. We report a case of DN with PMN.

Can use of the serum anti-PLA2R antibody negate the need for a renal biopsy in primary membranous nephropathy?

PLoS ONE, 2023
Background Since the emergence of the anti-PLA2R antibody (PLA2R-Ab) test, nephrology practice has not changed dramatically, with most nephrologists still relying on a kidney biopsy to diagnose membranous nephropathy.

Membranous nephropathy [PDF]

Brazilian Journal of Nephrology, 2023
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.
