PLA2R1 and HLA-DQA1 SNP in patients with primary membranous nephropathy.

ABSTRACT: Primary membranous nephropathy is a widely recognized autoimmune disease associated with podocyte antigens; the most important autoantigen is PLA2R1. PLA2R1 and HLA-DQA1 play important roles in the production of pathogenic antibodies. The purpose of this study was to observe the relationship between gene polymorphisms and primary membranous nephropathy and explore the clinical functional clues of PLA2R1 and HLA-DQA1 genes affecting treatment responsiveness. The study enrolled 89 patients with primary membranous nephropathy and 91 healthy people as a control. Single-nucleotide polymorphism loci (seven on PLA2R1 and two on HLA-DQA1) were identified using the PCR-Sanger technique. The patients were followed up until the 12th month, and relevant clinical data were collected. The relationship b
