Lupus nephritis
Membranous nephropathy
Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis
Organized Deposits
Monoclonal
100

This class of lupus nephritis is characterized by mesangial immune deposits only

What is class I or II?

100

This antigen is most commonly associated with primary membranous nephropathy

What is anti-PLA2R?

100

This describes pattern of injury seen in FSGS on biopsy

What is focal and segmental sclerosis?

100

This disease shows Congo red-positive deposits

What is amyloidosis?

100

This disease shows linear IgG deposition along GBM and TBM

What is MIDD?

200

This lupus class is most associated with "wire loop" lesions on light microscopy


What is class IV?

200

This immunofluorescence pattern is seen in membranous nephropathy

What is granular IgG along GBM? 


200

This EM finding helps distinguish primary and secondary FSGS

What is diffuse foot process effacement?


200

These fibrils measure approximately this size in amyloidosis

What is 8-12 nm?

200

This subtype involves light chains only

What is light chain deposition disease?

300

This complement pathway is primarily activated in lupus nephritis

What is the classical pathway?

300

These deposits are located in this part of glomerulus

What are subepithelial deposits?

300

This variant of FSGS is associated with collapsing glomerulopathy

What is APOL-associated FSGS?

300

This disease has larger fibrils and is Congo red negative

What is fibrillary glomerulonephritis?


300

This biopsy technique is required to demonstrate monoclonality definitively

What is immunofluorescence? Kappa and lambda restriction

400

This serologic marker correlates best with lupus nephritis activity

What is anti-dsDNA? Low complement levels also acceptable answer

400

This complement complex mediates podocyte injury in membranous nephropathy

What is C5b-9?

400

This trial showed MMF+ dexamethasone was not superior to cyclosporine

What is FSGS clinical trial?

400

This condition is associated with microtubular structures and often lymphoproliferative disease

What is immunotactoid glomerulopathy?

400

This condition is associated with plasma cell dyscrasia but does not meet criteria for multiple myeloma

What is MGRS?

500

This class of lupus nephritis may present with nephrotic syndrome and resembles membranous nephropathy

What is class V?

500

This trial showed rituximab was non-inferior to cyclosporine and superior for maintaining remission?

What is MENTOR trial?

500

This pathologic feature represents adhesion between glomerular tuft and Bowman's capsule

What are synechiae?

500

This protein is sensitive marker for fibrillary GN

What is DNAJB9?

500

This distinguishing feature separates MIDD from amyloidosis on EM

What is non-organized deposits vs fibrillary in amyloid?
