Many patients with idiopathic membranous nephropathy are elderly, but little is known about the natural or treated history of these patients. We have studied a cohort of 155 patients with membranous nephropathy who were recruited and followed-up over

Complement is important to host defense and the regulation of inflammation. The liver is overwhelmingly the major source of circulating complement. However, many other organs are capable of synthesizing some or all of the complement components in a r

The mechanisms controlling the production of antibodies against histocompatibility antigens are of prime importance in organ transplantation.We investigated the role of complement in the response to allogeneic stimulation, using mice deficient in C3,

At present, it is not clear whether xenogeneic MHC molecules are recognized by T cells directly or indirectly through self-MHC-restricted presentation in a transplantation setting.We have transplanted skin from HLA-A2 transgenic (B6.A2) to nontransge

The role of complement in autoimmune glomerulonephritis (as in other autoimmune diseases) is paradoxical, in that complement activation mediates acute inflammatory injury, yet inherited deficiency of complement may predispose to immune complex diseas

The deposition of complement components is a feature of many immune mediated human glomerular diseases. Experimental models provide evidence that complement activation within the glomerulus has a pathogenic role in immune complex and antibody mediate

HLA-DM is an MHC class II-related heterodimer that is targeted to lysosomal compartments by a tyrosine-based signal YTPL, present in the cytoplasmic tail of the beta chain. Similar signals in other proteins control transport to different intracellula

Tubulointerstitial injury is seen in some patients with glomerular proteinuria and when present is a poor prognostic indicator. However, the mechanism by which proteinuria results in tubular and interstitial damage is unknown. Activation of the compl

Peptide loading by major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II molecules occurs in the endocytic pathway and is critically dependent upon the function of the class II-related molecule human leucocyte antigen-DM (HLA-DM). We have previously shown

Small vessel thrombosis is a prominent feature in kidneys undergoing vascular rejection. Type I and type 2 plasminogen activator inhibitors (PAI-1 and PAI-2, respectively) are known to mediate thrombosis. To examine the potential role of PAI-1 and PA
