... microscopy (IF) were excluded. Light microscopy, IF, and electron microscopy (EM) were performed. PLA2R staining was performed by IF. EM for all cases was reviewed and electron-dense deposit location, distribution, and size were determined. Results: Ninety-three cases of MN were identified, of which 86 had...

... recessive genetic disease related to a loss-of-function mutation in SCARB2 , which encodes for lysosomal integral membrane protein type 2. Renal involvement is poorly described, and we report here the first electron microscopy renal analysis after having performed a kidney biopsy in a 31-year-old Gambian...

... of the investigation, the kidneys were fixed by perfusion for light and electron microscopy 2 h after injection of 3 g iodine/kg of iopamidol, iobitridol or iohexol. Control animals received physiologic saline. In the second part of the study, the fixation was performed 48 h after the injection of the corresponding...

... was normal. Renal biopsy showed cystic dilatation of the Bowman’s spaces and atrophy of the glomerular tufts. Electron microscopy revealed specific changes in the basement membranes of noncystic glomeruli, suggesting a congenital origin for her renal pathology. This relatively rare case contrasts...

Immunofluorescence showed typical granular fluorescence of rabbit IgG along the glomerular basement membrane, and electron microscopy showed subepithelial immune deposits. This indicates that in the initial phase of PHN, corresponding with the formation of immune...

In electron microscopy all of these were shown to be of glomerular origin by demonstrating either dark deposits in or at the basement membrane, or amyloid fibrils, or areas with retraction of the foot processes of the epithelial cells. Original light microscopy in 1967 had given proof...

...Anil K. Mandal; William M.
