Glomerular localization of fibrinogen reactive antigens (FRA) and fibrinogen degradation products reactive antigens (FDP-E) was investigated in 184 renal biopsy specimens of diseased kidneys by an immunofluorescent method. There was clear dissociation of FRA and neoantigen deposits in the glomeruli in a moderately active stage of acute glomerulonephritis, chronic glomerulonephritis and in all 5 cases of lipoid nephrosis. In lupus nephritis and membranous nephropathy there were almost coincident deposits of these antigens.
