Abstract:
Idiopathic membranous nephropathy(IMN) is one of the main pathology of nephrotic syndrome,and has a rising trend year by year.In recent years that IMN is organ specific autoimmune disease.Phospholipase A2 receptor(PLA2R) and thrombospondin type-1 domain containing 7A(THSD7A) are the two main antigens of IMN,which could be used to distinguish the IMN and secondary membranous nephropathy.The anti-PLA2R antibody and anti-THSD7A antibody are associated with diagnosis,severity and activity of the disease.The antibody titer and its change could be used to help deciding the beginning of therapy and the therapitive courses.
