Association of glomerular C4d deposition with various demographic data in IgA nephropathy patients; a preliminary study. [PDF]
BACKGROUND IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most prevalent primary chronic glomerulopathy worldwide. Thus, it is of vital importance to search for factors aggravating the disease progress, monitor disease activity and predict disease-specific therapy ...

Collapsing Glomerulopathy in Brazil: A Nationwide Descriptive Study
This multicenter study describes the characterization and outcomes of a retrospective cohort of collapsing glomerulopathy cases conducted in Brazil. These findings reinforce the understanding of this rare glomerulopathy. ABSTRACT Aim Collapsing glomerulopathy (CG) is a glomerular disease that progresses rapidly to renal replacement therapy (RRT ...

Proteinuria After Kidney Transplantation
ABSTRACT Proteinuria is a relatively frequent complication in both adults and children after kidney transplantation (40%–80%). It is usually mild and predominantly of tubular origin and is caused mainly by rejection, mTOR inhibitors, or hypertension; however, proteinuria could also be in the nephrotic range and of glomerular origin if caused by the ...

Mycophenolate Mofetil Treatment of C3 Glomerulopathy
C3 glomerulopathy is a relatively newly described and rare disease mediated by dysregulated activity of the alternative complement pathway. Although the light and electron microscopic findings may vary, the disease is defined by immunofluorescence microscopy with glomerular deposition ...

The Impact of Complement Factor H‐Related Protein Gene Deletions on Kidney Transplantation
In this study, we found that rs7542235 allele G tags a deletion of the CFHR1 gene. We also found that rs6677604 allele A tags a deletion of the whole CFHR3–1 locus. The plasma proteomics studies show that both variants are associated with an altered expression of FH/FHR proteins thus revealing a novel level of intricate regulation of the complement ...

Glomerulopathy in patients with distal duplication of chromosome 6p [PDF]
Background: Duplication of the distal part of chromosome 6p is a rare genetic syndrome. Renal involvement has been reported in the majority of patients, including a wide range of congenital abnormalities of kidney and urinary tract and, occasionally, a ...

Collapsing Glomerulopathy. A Treatable Disease? [PDF]
Renal disease is a relatively common complication in human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infected patients and has become the fourth leading cause of death in AIDS individuals, immediately following septicaemia, pneumonia and hepatic disease.
