Simple 2nd concept: MPGN
- Subendothelial injury with Ig, complement= leukocyte infiltration =inflammation
- Remember GBM protects!
- So, the glomerulus makes NEW GBM below deposits= double contour=new GBM walls off deposits =thus reduces leukocyte influx= less/no inflammation

Love my new book!
Of course chapter 14 is the best bit 😉
Recommended for all histopathology/forensic pathology/neuropathology trainees, as well as practising consultants. A wealth of autopsy knowledge from fabulous authors.

A study led by Prof Francesca Ciccarelli analysed genetic data from 1K people with oesophageal adenocarcinoma and 350 with Barrett’s oesophagus and found that defects in a gene called CDKN2A were more common in people with Barrett’s oesophagus who never progressed to cancer.

A new protocol for the analysis of self-collected cervical samples could reduce the need for follow-up clinician screening for many women, and result in more rapid referral for gynaecology assessment for others. This could improve cervical cancer screening procedures in the NHS.
