Galactose deficient IgA1 (GD-IgA1) in skin and serum from patients with skin-limited and systemic IgA Vasculitis.

open access: yes, 2019
BACKGROUND: IgA-vasculitis (IgAV) encompasses a systemic form involving kidneys, gut, skin or joints, and a skin-limited form. One characteristic feature of systemic IgAV is deposition of galactose-deficient IgA1 (GD-IgA1) in kidneys (as in IgA ...

Diagnostic Potential of Plasma IgA1 O-Glycans in Discriminating IgA Nephropathy From Other Glomerular Diseases and Healthy Participants

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Background: Aberrant O-glycosylation of IgA1 plays an important role in IgA nephropathy pathogenesis. Previous proteomic studies analyzed O-glycans of the circulating IgA1 hinge region and found that the N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) and galactose ...

Galactose-Deficient IgA1 in African Americans with IgA Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2010
Serum levels of galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) are elevated and heritable in Caucasian and Asian patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), but have not been characterized in African Americans (AA). Our objective was to determine whether serum Gd-IgA1 levels are increased in AA patients with IgAN and whether this is a heritable trait in this group.Blood

Secondary IgA Nephropathy Shares the Same Immune Features With Primary IgA Nephropathy

open access: yesKidney International Reports, 2020
Introduction: Galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) and related IgA/IgG immune complexes have been identified as the key drivers in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy (IgAN).

Autoantibodies Targeting Galactose-Deficient IgA1 Associate with Progression of IgA Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2012
Mesangial and circulating IgA1 with aberrantly glycosylated hinge region O-glycans characterize IgA nephropathy (IgAN). Unlike healthy individuals, some IgA1 is galactose deficient in patients with IgAN, leaving terminal N-acetylgalactosamine residues in the hinge region exposed.

Oxidative Stress and Galactose-Deficient IgA1 as Markers of Progression in IgA Nephropathy [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Journal of the American Society of Nephrology, 2011
SummaryBackground and objectivesWe assessed the activation of the oxidative stress pathway in patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN), while evaluating the classic marker of the disease (galactose-deficient serum IgA1).Design, setting, participants, & measurementsSera from 292 patients and 69 healthy controls from Italy and the United States were ...

Role of Epstein-Barr Virus in Pathogenesis and Racial Distribution of IgA Nephropathy

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the dominant type of primary glomerulonephritis worldwide. However, IgAN rarely affects African Blacks and is uncommon in African Americans.

Racial heterogeneity of IgA1 hinge-region O-glycoforms in patients with IgA nephropathy

open access: yesiScience, 2022
Summary: Galactose (Gal)-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1) is involved in IgA nephropathy (IgAN) pathogenesis. To reflect racial differences in clinical characteristics, we assessed disease- and race-specific heterogeneity in the O-glycosylation of the IgA1 hinge

Enzymatic sialylation of IgA1 O-glycans: implications for studies of IgA nephropathy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) have elevated circulating levels of IgA1 with some O-glycans consisting of galactose (Gal)-deficient N-acetylgalactosamine (GalNAc) with or without N-acetylneuraminic acid (NeuAc).

Assigning immunoglobulin class from single-cell transcriptomes in IgA1-secreting versus membrane subpopulations

open access: yesBioTechniques, 2021
IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is an autoimmune disease characterized by renal glomerular immunodeposits enriched for galactose-deficient IgA1 (Gd-IgA1; autoantigen) with the corresponding IgG autoantibodies.
