Abstract:

Idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN) is a common pathogeny of nephrotic syndrome in adults. In recent years, IMN has attracted much attention due to its increasing incidence and younger age of onset. The discovery of M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (PLA2R) antibody has made great progress in diagnosis, treatment, disease assessment, and prognosis judgment of IMN. We defined the IMN with both serum anti-PLA2R antibody (PLA2Rab) and glomerular PLA2R expression as PLA2R-related IMN. With the development of detection technology for serum PLA2R antibody, more and more patients have been diagnosed. Compared with other types of IMN, the clinical manifestations of PLA2R-related IMN are often more serious while its treatment is more difficult. This paper reviewed the research progress on PLA2R-related IMN in order to provide reference for both clinical work and scientific research.

Key words: Phospholipase A2 receptor, Idiopathic membranous nephropathy, Research progress
