Primary membranous nephropathy (MN) is caused by antibodies against podocyte antigens, especially the type M receptor of phospholipase A2 (PLA2R) and thrombospondin type-1 domain containing 7 A (THSD7A).

Thrombospondin Type 1 Domain-Containing 7A (THSD7A)-Associated Membranous Nephropathy Leading to Metastatic Neuroendocrine Carcinoma. [PDF]
Idiopathic membranous nephropathy also known as primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is a common cause of nephrotic syndrome often seen in nondiabetic adults worldwide, rising as high as 40% in adults over the age of 60. Most PMN is mediated by antibodies to the M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) in nearly 70%-80% of individuals ...

Human anti-thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A antibodies induce membranous nephropathy through activation of lectin complement pathway. [PDF]
To investigate whether the human anti-thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) antibody-induced membranous nephropathy (MN) is mediated by activating lectin complement pathway. Automatic biochemical apparatus was used to assess renal function of mice. The serum levels of anti-THSD7A antibodies and complement were tested by using ELISA.

Novel ELISA for thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A autoantibodies in membranous nephropathy [PDF]
Autoantibodies against phospholipase A2 receptor 1 (PLA2R1) and thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) are emerging as biomarkers to classify membranous nephropathy (MN) and to predict outcome or response to treatment. Anti-THSD7A autoantibodies are detected by Western blot and indirect immunofluorescence test (IIFT).

Critical evaluation of cancer risks in glomerular disease
The increased cancer incidence in patients with glomerular disease can be secondary to an intrinsic immune dysfunction associated with the disease or/and extrinsic factors, especially immunosuppressants. The treatment for paraneoplastic glomerulopathy is

Genetic determinants of the development and course of membranous nephropathy [PDF]
Membranous nephropathy (MN) is one of the most common causes of nephrotic syndrome in adults and is classified as either primary (idiopatic) or secondary MN according to underlying etiology (the later result from some known disease such as systemic ...

Membranous nephropathy associated with thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) in an adult woman with eosinophilia. [PDF]
Abstract A 30-year-old woman on steroid therapy for eosinophilia presented with nephrotic syndrome during steroid tapering. She was diagnosed with membranous nephropathy (MN) stage II–III (positive for IgG1 and IgG4) by renal biopsy. There was no evidence of secondary MN. Her urinary protein level was controlled to 0.5 g/day or less, and her eosinophil

Clinicopathological characteristics of thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A-associated membranous nephropathy. [PDF]
Thrombospondin type 1 domain-containing 7A (THSD7A) is a recently identified target antigen of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN). The clinicopathological characteristics of THSD7A-associated MN are poorly characterised due to low prevalence among MN patients.
