M-type phospholipase A2 receptor as target antigen in idiopathic membranous nephropathy.
Laurence H. Beck,Ramon G. Bonegio,Gérard Lambeau,David M. Beck,David W. Powell,Timothy D. Cummins,Jon B. Klein,David J. Salant +7 more
TL;DR: A majority of patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy have antibodies against a conformation-dependent epitope in PLA(2)R, indicating that PLA( 2)R is a major antigen in this disease.
Journal ArticleDOI
Rituximab-induced depletion of anti-PLA2R autoantibodies predicts response in membranous nephropathy.
Laurence H. Beck,Fernando C. Fervenza,David M. Beck,Ramon G. Bonegio,Fahim A. Malik,Stephen B. Erickson,Fernando G. Cosio,Daniel C. Cattran,David J. Salant +8 more
TL;DR: M measuring anti-PLA(2)R levels by immunoassay may be a method to follow and predict response to treatment with rituximab in membranous nephropathy.
Journal ArticleDOI
Anti-phospholipase A₂ receptor antibodies correlate with clinical status in idiopathic membranous nephropathy.
TL;DR: The role of PLA(2)R as a major antigen in iMN was confirmed in an independent, European patient cohort, and levels of circulating anti-PLA( 2)R revealed a strong correlation with clinical disease activity.
Proceedings ArticleDOI
Enhancing Even Gas Distribution in Porous Media with Radial Flow
TL;DR: In this paper , the authors proposed radial flow in packed beds, where a central tube provides flow that transports fluid from the center to the bed's wall, and numerical investigations on different designs were analyzed to enhance even flow gas distribution in the porous media when using this radial technique.
