  • Title: Immunopathology of hepatitis B mediated membranous glomerulonephritis.
    Author: Madaliński K, Jung H, Stachowski J, Kossowski J.
    Journal: Arch Immunol Ther Exp (Warsz); 1991; 39(4):413-8. PubMed ID: 1821618.
    Abstract:
    The study was undertaken to establish the clinical and immunological aspects of HBV-mediated membranous glomerulonephritis in children. Out of 54 children with membranous GN treated in the Children's Memorial Hospital 51 children (94.4%) had the disease related to HBV infection. The inhibitory effect of immune complexes: HBsAg-IgG and HBeAg-IgG, isolated from sera of these children on lymphocyte proliferation of blood donors was observed. This may partly explain the status of immune tolerance towards HBV in the infected children.
