Figure 6

Schematic diagram of MN mechanism hypothesis. Environmental factors (toxicity, inflammation, infection, etc.) lead to up-regulation of renal TP53 and down-regulation of SLC2A3 in PBMCs. Changes in the kidney expose podocyte target antigens. Changes in peripheral immune cells allow the persistence of a humoral immune response with IgG4 as the main antibody.
