Optimal strategy for remission-maintenance therapy in patients with MPO-ANCA associated vasculitis is not established. This study found that MPO-ANCA negative patients are at low risk for relapse even without remission maintenance therapy bit.ly/CJN06460622 fernando fervenza

The science underpinning GN has advanced so that we are close to re-classifying GN - primarily according to cause rather than pattern. Read about this in our new review Nature Rev Immunol with Hans-Joachim Anders Paola Romagnani and Nelson Leung. Online viewing - rdcu.be/c3heW

NDNF is a specific target antigen in Syphilis-associated MN. We were quite surprised to find this antigen:NDNF was present in 100% of syphilis-associated MN. Mass spectrometry, IHC, confocal IF & western blot studies confirmed NDNF as the target antigen journals.lww.com/jasn/Abstract/…
