C3 Glomerulopathy

Pediatric Nephrology, 2016
Recent advances in our understanding of the disease pathology of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis has resulted in its re-classification as complement C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and immune complex-mediated glomerulonephritis (IC-GN). The new consensus is based on its underlying pathomechanism, with a key pathogenetic role for the complement ...

Complement inhibition in C3 glomerulopathy

Seminars in Immunology, 2016
C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) describes a spectrum of glomerular diseases defined by shared renal biopsy pathology: a predominance of C3 deposition on immunofluorescence with electron microscopy permitting disease sub-classification. Complement dysregulation underlies the observed pathology, a causal relationship that is supported by well described studies ...

C3 Glomerulopathy

2013
C3 glomerulopathy is a recent disease classification comprising several rare types of glomerulonephritis, including dense deposit disease (DDD) and C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN). The most common histological feature in these diseases is the presence of glomerular deposition of C3 within the mesangium and along the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in ...

C3 Glomerulopathy: Pathogenesis and Treatment

Advances in Chronic Kidney Disease, 2020
C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is a rare set of kidney diseases with 2 patterns: C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) and dense deposit disease. Pathogenesis of both diseases is due to complement dysregulation in the alternative pathway. Acquired or genetic alterations of the regulatory proteins of the complement pathway result in C3G.

Update on C3 Glomerulopathy

Advances in Kidney Disease and Health
C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is a rare disorder marked by deposition of C3 in the glomerulus, resulting in damage to the glomerular filtration unit and presenting with features of the nephritic and nephrotic syndromes. Fundamentally, C3G is caused by dysregulation of the alternative pathway of the complement cascade, either due to genetic variants or ...

C3 glomerulopathy: a new classification

Nature Reviews Nephrology, 2010
Several distinct pathological patterns of glomerular inflammation are associated with abnormal regulation of the complement system, specifically, with dysregulation of the alternative pathway of the complement system. However, these conditions share the pathological finding of complement C3 (C3) deposited within the glomerulus in the absence of ...

The role of complement in C3 glomerulopathy

Molecular Immunology, 2015
C3 glomerulopathy describes a spectrum of disorders with glomerular pathology associated with C3 cleavage product deposition and with defective complement action and regulation (Fakhouri et al., 2010; Sethi et al., 2012b). Kidney biopsies from these patients show glomerular accumulation or deposition of C3 cleavage fragments, but no or minor deposition
