[Semeiotic significance of the clinical use of methods of determining serum immunocomplexes in human glomerulonephritis].

The application of tests for the determination of serum immune complexes in nephrology has supplied fresh pathogenetic and symptomatological information. An account is given of results obtained in primary and secondary glomerulonephritis using four methods; the solid-phase Clq test, the polyethylene glycol precipitation test, the immunofluorescence on polymorphonucleates tests, and the solid-phase conglutinins test (with anti-IgA antibodies). The results take on a symptomatological meaning in many classes of human glomerulonephritis, both in the differentiation of primary forms and those secondary to systemic diseases, and in prognosis. A critical review is made of the data obtained in a personal series in the light of a long-term follow-up. The limits and specificity of each test are also discussed.

[Solid-phase conglutinin tests for circulating IgA immunocomplexes].

In some renal, gastroenterological and dermatological diseases the pathogenic role of circulating immune complexes (CIC) of IgA type has been defined. The methods so far proposed to investigate CIC are for the most part able to identify IgGIC, while only few can do the same for IgAIC. The Authors discuss in details the technique and the sensibility and specificity of a new test for IgAIC based on the linkage with the conglutinin in solid phase and propose this test for the clinical study of IgA diseases.
