Figure 1 Immunoperoxidase staining of normal (a), membranous (b), membranoproliferative (c) and IgA nephropathy (d) with antinephrin antibodies. Distinct down-regulation of reactivity can be seen in all samples of diseased kidney.

Figure 2 Immunoperoxidase (a–g) and immunofluorescence (h) staining of different diagnostic kidney biopsies with monoclonal antibody (mAb)18C7. (a) Normal human kidney; (b) IgA glomerulonephritis; (c) membranous glomerulonephropathy; (d) focal segmental glomerulosclerosis; (e) cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis; (f) membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis; (g) systemic lupus erythematosus; (h) CNF (original magnification, ×200).

Figure 3 Western blotting of normal human kidney glomerular lysate by mAb 18C7. The clear band is seen at around 240 kD, while on the control lane using irrelevant mouse IgG instead of 18C7 no clear band is found. Molecular mass markers are shown on the right.
