Murine models of renal disease: Possibilities and problems in studies using mutant mice [PDF]
, 2000 The elucidation of the pathogenesis of human renal disease at the molecular level has been facilitated by the growing field of gene targeting and the development of mouse strains with single-gene deletions - the `knock-out' mice. Experimental nephrology,

Complement Activation Is Associated With Crescents in IgA Nephropathy
Frontiers in Immunology, 2021 IntroductionCrescents, especially those found at a percentage greater than 50%, are often associated with rapid progression of kidney disease in IgA nephropathy (IgAN). The mechanism of crescents forming in IgAN is still unclear.

Progressive renal disease: Role of race and antihypertensive medications [PDF]
, 1935 Progressive renal disease: Role of race and antihypertensive medications. Hypertension is associated with an accelerated rate of decline in renal function in patients with chronic renal disease. To identify factors that might alter the rate of decline in
