22 | N | NEG | Neg PLA2R on biopsy, negative Abs post-Tx, 2 episodes ACR, progressed to ESRD¥ | |
23 | N | POS/3 | NEG post-Tx | Equivocal PLA2R on biopsy, negative Abs post-Tx, proteinuria ~ 1000 mg/24hrs, on sirolimus |
24 | N | NA | ABO-incompatible Tx, Neg PLA2R on biopsy, negative Abs post-Tx, death 6 years post-Tx | |
25 | N | NEG | Liver-kidney Tx, Neg PLA2R on biopsy, negative Ab by Western blot | |

Native biopsy was negative for PLA2R antigen.
Native biopsy was positive for PLA2R antigen. NEG = negative, POS = positive/semiquantitative Ab by Western blot, NA = not available. ACR = Acute cellular rejection.
