Abstract
The nephrotoxic serum nephritis (NTN) model is an integral part of experimental glomerulonephritis (GN) research. Here, we discuss how the murine NTN model can be induced and effectively used to mimic an immune complex-mediated GN. Further, we differentiate between heterologous and autologous models by comparing pathophysiology and phenotypic manifestations.
