Abstract

Antibodies against several podocyte antigens have evolved as markers of diagnosis, disease activity, and prognosis in membranous nephropathy, but their pathogenic role remains debated. Detailed work-up of two cases of primary and secondary membranous nephropathy now supports the concept that thrombospondin type-1 domain-containing 7A autoantibodies are pathogenic.
