TREM2+ macrophages accumulate in childhood IgA nephropathy and soluble TREM2 represents a reliable non‐invasive biomarker

open access: yesExperimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a common type of primary glomerulonephritis in children. The pathogenesis of childhood IgAN remains unclear, and there is a lack of effective non‐invasive biomarkers for this disease. Single‐cell RNA sequencing was performed in children with IgAN to delineate cellular and molecular compositions, and subcluster ...
