1 1754105 Recent work has suggested that glutathione S-transferase (GST) enzymuria may be used to assess renal injury in transplant kidneys.
2 1754105 There is little work investigating the possibility of using glutathione S-transferase enzymuria to assess other renal diseases and this study was undertaken to evaluate the localisation of GST isoenzymes in various glomerular and tubular pathologies so that the specificity of these enzymes as markers of tubular injury could be defined.

5 8623929 There is considerable evidence that glomerular deposits in Heymann nephritis, a rat model of membranous nephritis, result from shedding of immune complexes formed on podocytes and that the principal antigen is part of the extracellular domain of a cell surface glycoprotein receptor called gp330 or megalin.
6 8623929 It has also been reported that the immunogen that induces Heymann nephritis is a complex formed between gp330 and the receptor-associated protein RAP.
7 8623929 The recent elucidation of the primary structure of gp330 makes it possible to investigate the ability of defined portions of gp330, devoid of RAP, to induce Heymann nephritis.
8 8623929 In the present study we show that a gp330-glutathione-S-transferase fusion protein, containing 137 amino acid residues (1114 to 1250) of the ectodomain, induces active Heymann nephritis and that heterologous antibodies against this fusion protein produce passive Heymann nephritis.
9 8623929 Furthermore, we found that RAP was able to bind to gp330 in the glomerular deposits but not to the gp330 fusion protein in vitro.
10 8623929 The results show that the region of gp330 spanning amino acid residues 1114 to 1250 contains peptides capable of inducing pathogenic antibodies of Heymann nephritis without a contributory role of RAP.
