  Heterogeneity and Clinical Significance of Glomerular-binding Antibodies in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus -- Lefkowith ...
GBM binding was uniformly diminished by DNase pretreatment of the GBM (average decrease of 67±6%, Fig.
Germane to this issue, the present study specifically suggests that GBM collagen (the major GBM protein [46]) is important for autoantibody binding to the glomerulus in lupus nephritis, as we have noted with murine lupus sera and glomerulotropic mAbs (24, 25).
The collagen dependence of GBM binding is likely to be a function of the avidity of histones for type IV collagen (35) and does not appear to be caused by the binding of sera to collagen per se.

 Glomerular basement membrane (GBM) disorders
The GBM is thin, and must sometimes break, as it causes blood to appear in the urine.
If kidney biopsies have shown thin GBM disease in other family members, it will not usually be necessary to undertake it in everyone who has blood in the urine.
The GBM is thickened with normal basement membrane material in two common kidney disease, membranous nephropathy and diabetic nephropathy (kidney disease caused by diabetes).

 Glioblastoma
As a rule their behavior can be predicted from this histology: grade I (pilocytic astrocytomas) and grade II (benign astrocytomas) tumors grow slowly over many years while grade IV (GBM) grows rapidly, invading and altering brain function.
Once symptoms occur, the diagnosis of GBM is usually straight-forward.
Chemotherapy is the most controversial of treatments as many studies have failed to show prolonged median survival in treated patients, although the proportion of long term survivors may be somewhat greater.

 GLAST Burst Monitor at Marshall Space Flight Center
The GLAST Burst Monitor (GBM) was selected as a complementary instrument for the GLAST mission and will be sensitive to X-rays and gamma rays with energies between 5 keV and 25 MeV.
The combination of the GBM and the LAT provides a powerful tool for studying gamma-ray bursts, particularly for time-resolved spectral studies over a very large energy band.
The development of the GLAST Burst Monitor and analysis of its observational data is a collaborative effort between the National Space Science and Technology Center in the U.S. and the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) in Germany.

 GBM Simulation and Detector Response Site
The measurements provided by the GBM are particularly important for the study of gamma-ray bursts in order to connect current understanding based on low-energy measurements with the practically unexplored high-energy domain.
The GBM instrument is being developed by a U.S./German collaboration of gamma-ray astronomers and engineers.
Because GBM employs unshielded, distributed gamma-ray detectors, its sucessful operation depends on detailed knowledge of how radiation scatters into the detectors from passive materials in the detector housing, the spacecraft, and Earth's atmosphere.

 Geometric Brownian motion : GBM
A Geometric Brownian motion (occasionally, exponential Brownian motion and, hereafter, GBM) is a continuous-time stochastic process in which the logarithm of the randomly varying quantity follows a Brownian motion.
It is used particularly in the field of option pricing[?] because a quantity that follows a GBM may take any value strictly greater than zero.
) is Normally distributed with mean (u-v.v/2).t and variance (v.v).t, which reflects the fact that increments of a GBM are Normal relative to the current price, which is why the process has the name 'geometric'.

 ANTI-GBM ANTIBODIES
BACKGROUND: Anti-glomerular basement membrane (GBM) autoantibodies are strongly associated with Goodpasture's syndrome (glomerulonephritis and pulmonary hemorrhage).
Enzyme immunoassay (EIA) has replaced immunofluorescence as the method of choice for detecting and quantitating anti-GBM antibodies, due to its greater sensitivity and specificity (>99% in most studies).
The specific detection of anti-GBM antibodies is important for confirming the diagnosis because roughly 10% of renal biopsies show nonspecific linear deposits on the GBM that resemble those seen in Goodpasture's syndrome, and immune complex glomerulonephritis can be associated with pulmonary hemorrhage and thus can be difficult to distinguish clinically from Goodpasture's syndrome.
