Özet

Objective: The presence of autoantibodies against M-type phospholipase A2 receptor (anti-PLA2R) is a characteristic of idiopathic membranous nephropathy (IMN). This study aimed to evaluate the presence, levels, and relationship of these antibodies with clinical parameters in idiopathic and secondary membranous nephropathy (MN) and IgA nephropathy (IgAN) in our country by indirect immunofluorescence (IFT) method.
