Abstract
Utilizing immunofluorescent techniques, antinuclear and antithyroid antibodies were demonstrated within the IgD class of immunoglobulins. Glomerular deposits of IgD were detected in three kidneys with glomerulonephritis and one renal allograft. Similar deposits were not present in four kidneys with respective diagnosis of interstitial nephritis, lupus nephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis, and focal glomerulonephritis.
