Difference between IgA nephropathy and Immunoglobulin M

IgA nephropathy vs. Immunoglobulin M

IgA nephropathy (IgAN), also known as IgA nephritis, Berger disease (and variations), or synpharyngitic glomerulonephritis, is a disease of the kidney (or nephropathy); specifically it is a form of glomerulonephritis or an inflammation of the glomeruli of the kidney. Immunoglobulin M (IgM) is one of several forms of antibody that are produced by vertebrates.

Similarities between IgA nephropathy and Immunoglobulin M

IgA nephropathy and Immunoglobulin M have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Antibody, Antigen, Classical complement pathway, Complement system, Immunoglobulin G, Red blood cell.

Antibody

An antibody (Ab), also known as an immunoglobulin (Ig), is a large, Y-shaped protein produced mainly by plasma cells that is used by the immune system to neutralize pathogens such as pathogenic bacteria and viruses.

Antigen

In immunology, an antigen is a molecule capable of inducing an immune response (to produce an antibody) in the host organism.

Classical complement pathway

The classical complement pathway is one of three pathways which activate the complement system, which is part of the immune system.

Complement system

The complement system is a part of the immune system that enhances (complements) the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear microbes and damaged cells from an organism, promotes inflammation, and attacks the pathogen's cell membrane.

Red blood cell

Red blood cells-- also known as RBCs, red cells, red blood corpuscles, haematids, erythroid cells or erythrocytes (from Greek erythros for "red" and kytos for "hollow vessel", with -cyte translated as "cell" in modern usage), are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen (O2) to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.
