Zusammenfassung:PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a new approach for reducing glomerular inflammation and renal dysfunction associated with glomerulonephritis (GN).SOLUTION: There are provided: a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding scFv polypeptide containing a specific amino acid sequence; a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding polypeptide containing a specific variable light chain region amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acid 3 to amino acid 110; a nucleic acid molecule comprising a nucleotide sequence encoding polypeptide containing a specific variable heavy chain region amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acid 1 to amino acid 122; or an isolated protein comprising (a) a first polypeptide region containing a specific variable light chain region amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acid 3 to amino acid 110 and (b) a second polypeptide region containing a specific variable heavy chain region amino acid sequence corresponding to amino acid 1 to amino acid 122.
