Glomérulonéphrites auto-immunes. La plupart des glomérulonéphrites ont une origine immunitaire. Si le dépôt ou la formation locale de complexes immuns représente le mécanisme le plus fréquemment en cause, l'action néphrotoxique d'autoanticorps dirigés contre la membrane basale glomérulaire (GBM) a été bien démontrée chez certains malades. 1, record 1, French, - glom%C3%A9rulon%C3%A9phrite%20auto%2Dimmune
