Additionally, THSD7A has been shown to be aberrantly expressed in a variety of cancers and autoantibodies against THSD7A are a frequent cause of a paraneoplastic autoimmune kidney disease, secondary membranous nephropathy (Hou et al., 2017; Stahl et al., 2017; Wang et al., 2019). The gene discussed is THSD7A; the disease is membranous glomerulonephritis.
