Mesangial cells in membranous glomerulonephritis.
Renal biopsies of seven patients with membranous glomerulonephritis were examined by light, electron, and immunofluorescence microscopy. All had characteristic changes of glomerular basement membranes, typically with bright granular membranous fluorescence of IgG and variable deposits of complement. Cellularity was normal or slightly increased due largely to mesangial cell proliferation. These ...
متن کاملDiffuse membranous glomerulonephritis in children.
Nine cases of diffuse membranous glomerulonephritis detected among 90 renal biopsies from children with persistent proteinuria and one necropsy case of a young child who died of chronic membranous glomerulonephritis with uraemia were studied by a variety of techniques. Clinical presentation varies within this single morphological entity and the response to steroid therapy is not yet predictable...
متن کاملPathophysiology of experimental glomerulonephritis in rats.
Micropuncture, clearance, immunofluorescence and light microscopy techniques were used to study kidney structure and single nephron function in rats with autologous immune complex nephritis (AICN), a membranous glomerulonephritis developing over 5 to 20 mo, in the more acute and proliferative glomerular basement membrane (GBM) nephritis and in controls. Both models are known to have clinical co...
متن کاملGastric Syphilis and Membranous Glomerulonephritis
Syphilis is a chronic systemic infectious disease caused by the bacterium Treponema pallidum. Gastric involvement and nephrotic syndrome are uncommon but well documented complications of syphilis, but the co-occurrence of these two complications in the same patient is extremely rare. Thus, because of their nonspecific presentation, suspicion of gastric syphilis (GS) and nephrotic syndrome is es...
متن کاملImmunological Basis of Membranous Glomerulonephritis
Primary membranous glomerulonephritis (MGN) is a major glomerular disease causing proteinuria in humans (Jones, 1957). It is the prototype of an autoimmune disease (Couser, et al., 1978) characterized by sub-epithelial immune deposits within glomeruli. Its pathogenesis remains still unknown. Immune deposits are formed by IgG4, their respective antigen and complement. The definition of the immun...
