We evaluated circulating antibodies to α-enolase by a dot blotting system and PLA2R by indirect immunofluorescence, and glomerular deposition of these proteins in 25 patients with primary MN, 20 patients with secondary MN, 44 patients with collagen disease or severe infection, 60 patients with nephritis (each ten patients of IgA nephropathy, focal segmental gloemrulosclerosis, minimal change nephrotic syndrome, membranoproliferative glomeurlonephritis, diabetic glomerulosclerosis, and tubulointerstitial nephritis) as disease control, and 20 healthy subjects. Here, PLA2R1 is linked to interstitial nephritis.
