We initially reported Semaphorin 3B (SEMA3B) as a target antigen in pediatric membranous nephropathy (MN) However, we are also seeing SEMA3B in adult MN. Unique features of adult SEMA3B MN: Most patients are middle aged adult females (86%), almost half had a history of pregnancy/miscarriage. I wonder if the pediatric SEMA3B MN and adult female/pregnancy associated SEMA3B MN are somehow related. kireports.org/article/S2468-…
