Background: The diagnostic role of circulating anti-phospholipase A2 receptor antibodies
(anti-PLA2R Abs) is now well recognized in idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN) …

Aims: The aim of this study was to develop a new method for detecting anti-phospholipase
A2 receptor-IgG4 to improve the sensitivity and specificity in the diagnosis of idiopathic …

Autoantibody against phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) is a sensitive and specific
biomarker of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (iMN), being found in approximately 70 …

transmembrane glycoprotein related to the C‑type animal lectin family like the mannose
receptor. More recent observations, revealed that antibodies to the PLA2r are IgG4.[24, 31 …

Results. Positive anti-PLA2R antibodies at diagnosis were found in 16 of 33 patients
(48.5%). Anti-PLA2R levels were independently associated with the achievement of …

Background Phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) has been identified as a major
autoantigen in primary membranous nephropathy (MN). We evaluated the association …

Background To discuss the clinicopathological features and prognosis of patients with
idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) who are serum-negative for the anti-PLA2R …

Objective To examine the expression of phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) in renal tissues
and the level of anti-PLA2R antibody in serum in patients with idiopathic membranous …
