説明

<jats:p> IgM is detected in biopsies from some patients with nephrotic syndrome, although this has been attributed to passive trapping of the protein. We found, however, that IgM colocalizes with complement activation fragments in some glomeruli. We also found that affected patients had higher levels of IgM reactive to glomerular endothelial cell epitopes. Thus, IgM activates the complement system in the glomeruli of some patients with nephrotic syndrome and may contribute to injury. </jats:p>
