    What is Goodpasture syndrome? Goodpasture syndrome is a rare, autoimmune disease that can affect the lungs and kidneys. Normally, the immune system creates cells, called antibodies, to fight off germs. In Goodpasture syndrome, the immune system makes antibodies that attack the lungs and kidneys, instead of the germs. This condition may last anywhere from a few weeks to as long as 2 years. What causes Goodpasture syndrome? Goodpasture syndrome may be an inherited condition, or may develop as a result of a combination of factors. What are the symptoms of Goodpasture syndrome? Individual responses to Goodpasture syndrome vary. Consult your physician if you are experiencing any/all of the following:
    • fatigue nausea dyspnea (difficult breathing) pallor
    As the condition progresses, other signs may occur, including:

Information, Symptoms, Treatments and Resources
Overview Information Posts Table of contents Next Definition Goodpasture syndrome is a disease that affects the kidneys and lungs. It usually involves rapidly progressive kidney failure that develops in days to weeks along with lung disease (cough, shortness of breath, and blood in the sputum). Some forms of the disease involve just the lung or kidney, not both. Alternative Names Anti-glomerular basement membrane antibody disease; Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis with pulmonary hemorrhage; Pulmonary renal syndrome; Glomerulonephritis - pulmonary hemorrhage Causes, incidence, and risk factors Goodpasture syndrome is an autoimmune disorder. This means your body makes antibodies that attack your own body tissues. In this case, antibodies form against a certain type of protein called collagen. The collagen is present in the alveoli (tiny air sacs in the lungs) and in the glomeruli (the filtering units of the kidney). These antibodies are called anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies (or anti-GBM antibodies). Sometimes the disorder is triggered by a viral respiratory infection or by inhaling hydrocarbon solvents. In such cases, the immune system may attack organs or tissues because it mistakes them for these viruses or foreign chemicals.

Search Query What is Goodpasture syndrome? Goodpasture syndrome is a rare, autoimmune disease that can affect the lungs and kidneys. Normally, the immune system creates antibodies to fight off germs. With Goodpasture syndrome, however, the immune system makes antibodies that attack the lungs and kidneys, instead of the germs. According to the National Kidney and Urologic Diseases Information Clearinghouse, this condition may last anywhere from a few weeks to as long as two years. In some cases, bleeding in the lungs may occur - resulting in a very serious condition. However, in most cases, Goodpasture syndrome does not cause permanent damage to the lungs. Damage to the kidneys, however, may be long-lasting. If the kidneys fail, kidney transplantation or dialysis therapy may become necessary. What causes Goodpasture syndrome? Goodpasture syndrome may be an inherited condition, or may develop as a result of a combination of factors. What are the symptoms of Goodpasture syndrome?

      Causes
      Goodpasture syndrome is an autoimmune disorder , a condition that occurs when the immune system mistakenly attacks and destroys healthy body tissue. Persons with this syndrome develop substances that attack a protein called collagen in the tiny air sacs in the lungs and the filtering units (glomureli) of the kidney. These substances are called anti-glomerular basement membrane antibodies. Glomerular basement membrane is a part of the kidneys that helps filter waste and extra fluid from the blood.
