Glomerular Basement Membrane Antibody (IgG)

Use

Glomerular Basement Membrane Antibody (IgG) detects autoantibodies against the glomerular basement membrane, frequently present in approximately one‑fourth of patients with Goodpasture’s syndrome—a disorder characterized by both glomerulonephritis and pulmonary hemorrhage. The presence of these antibodies, in conjunction with appropriate clinical findings, supports diagnosis of anti‑GBM disease.
