Differential diagnosis of lupus and primary membranous nephropathies by IgG subclass analysis.
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES Previous studies showed that the accuracy of IgG subclasses (ISs) in differentiating membranous lupus nephritis (MLN) from primary membranous nephropathy (PMN) is <80%. This study hypothesized that diagnostic accuracy of ISs would be increased if renal compartment measurements and decision tree analysis are applied. DESIGN, SETTING, PARTICIPANTS, & MEASUREMENTS Renal...
متن کاملUltrastructural pathology of nephropathies with organized deposits: a case series
Renal organized or structured deposits are much less frequent than those with usual type immunocomplex deposits and are encountered in a wide variety of primary and systemic disorders. It has been suggested that immunoglobulins (Igs) are responsible for organized deposits. We report 5 cases who have been diagnosed and treated in our hospital. Patients were aged 52 to 72 years, three of them wer...
متن کاملInvolvement of the Tubular ClC-Type Exchanger ClC-5 in Glomeruli of Human Proteinuric Nephropathies
UNLABELLED Glomerular protein handling mechanisms have received much attention in studies of nephrotic syndrome. Histopathological findings in renal biopsies from severely proteinuric patients support the likelihood of protein endocytosis by podocytes. ClC-5 is involved in the endocytosis of albumin in the proximal tubule. AIM To investigate whether ClC-5 is expressed in the glomerular compar...
متن کاملThrombotic microangiopathy in membranous lupus nephritis
Introduction Systemic lupus erythematous (SLE) is a systemic autoimmune disease having various clinical and pathological manifestations. The vascular manifestations of SLE range from most common uncomplicated vascular immune deposits to rare renal vasculitis. The non-immune, non-inflammatory thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) is a rare vascular manifestation of SLE, which is therapeutically chall...
متن کاملKikuchi disease preceding systemic lupus erythematosus with membranous lupus nephritis
Kikuchi disease (KD) is a rare form of necrotizing lymphadenitis. KD usually presents with cervical lymphadenopathy and fever in young women. It tends to run a benign course and resolve spontaneously within months. The aetiology of the disease is still unclear although a variety of infectious agents have been postulated. There is also a documented but rare association with systemic lupus erythe...
