Figure 1 IF findings in pronase-digested paraffin tissue. (a) Granular global glomerular capillary wall positivity for IgG in a case of MGN. (b) Global mesangial positivity for IgA in a case of IgAN. (c) Intracapillary protein thrombi staining strongly for IgM in a case of cryoglobulinemic glomerulonephritis. (d) ‘Smudgy’ mesangial deposits of kappa in a patient with primary amyloidosis, AL kappa type. (e) Linear tubular basement membrane deposits of kappa light chain in a case of kappa light-chain deposition disease. (f) Intracellular proximal tubular crystals of kappa light chain in a case of kappa LCFS. (a–f) Original magnification × 400.
