GLOMERULAR BASEMENT MEMBRANE (GBM) ANTIBODY IgG Test Cost INR:3500 Symptoms Diagnosis

If you are experiencing symptoms such as blood in urine, proteinuria, and high blood pressure, your doctor may recommend a GLOMERULAR BASEMENT MEMBRANE (GBM) ANTIBODY IgG Test. This test is used to diagnose a rare autoimmune disease called Goodpasture syndrome, which affects the kidneys and lungs. At DNA Labs India, we offer this test at a cost of INR 3500.

What is Goodpasture Syndrome?

Goodpasture syndrome is an autoimmune disease in which the immune system attacks the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in the kidneys and the alveolar basement membrane in the lungs. This can lead to kidney failure and lung damage.

Symptoms of Goodpasture Syndrome

The symptoms of Goodpasture syndrome can vary from person to person, but they usually include:

• Blood in urine
• Proteinuria
• High blood pressure
• Fatigue
• Shortness of breath
• Coughing up blood

Diagnosing Goodpasture Syndrome

To diagnose Goodpasture syndrome, your doctor may recommend a GLOMERULAR BASEMENT MEMBRANE (GBM) ANTIBODY IgG Test. This test measures the level of IgG antibodies in your blood that are directed against the GBM. If the test is positive, it indicates that you have antibodies attacking your kidneys and lungs, which is a sign of Goodpasture syndrome.
