ABSTRACT IgA nephropathy (IgAN), the most common form of glomerulonephritis, is a major and growing public health issue. It results from intestinal barrier dysfunction that leads to mesangial deposition of pathogenic galactose‐deficient IgA1 (Gd‐IgA1) and renal inflammation.

Abstract Aims The risk of diabetic nephropathy among patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D) can be reduced through optimal glycaemic control. It is not known if the pharmacological properties of long‐acting insulin analogues may reduce the risk of diabetic complications compared with neutral protamine Hagedorn (NPH) insulin.

The Glomerular Filtration Barrier: Components and Crosstalk
The glomerular filtration barrier is a highly specialized blood filtration interface that displays a high conductance to small and midsized solutes in plasma but retains relative impermeability to macromolecules.

ABSTRACT Background Inflammation plays an essential role in the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy (DN). Linderalactone (LNL), as a natural sesquiterpene lactone, has been discovered to have anti‐inflammatory activation. However, the effects of linderalactone on diabetes‐associated renal damage remain unclear.

Nonenzymatic Glycosylation of Glomerular Basement Membrane
To test the hypothesis that increased nonenzymatic glycosylation contributes to the microangiopathic sequelae of diabetes, we examined the interaction of glucose with basement membranes in vivo and in vitro. The level of nonenzymatic glycosylation, determined by hydroxymethylfurfuraldehyde (HMF) generation, in glomerular basement membrane (GMB ...

The Glomerular Basement Membrane [PDF]
The basement membrane of the glomerular capillaries of the mammalian kidney has been a favorite object for studies on the structure, function, and composition of basement membranes because of its important biological role in glomerular filtration of macromolecules, and because of the relative ease with which it can be isolated for study, free from ...

Clinical implications of imlifidase interference in antibody screening and transfusion management
Abstract Background Imlifidase has received conditional approval from the EMA for desensitizing deceased donor kidney transplant recipients. It works by cleaving IgG into F(ab′)2 and Fc fragments, thereby reducing the risk of antibody‐mediated rejection. However, its impact on diagnostic assays remains understudied. Case Report We present the case of a

Role of RIPK1/RIPK3/MLKL signalling pathway in sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury
Abstract Sepsis‐associated acute kidney injury (SA‐AKI) is a common clinical syndrome in critically ill patients, and its high mortality rate is closely related to complex pathological mechanisms. Existing studies have shown that the pathophysiological process of SA‐AKI involves complex multi‐mechanism interactions, including an uncontrolled systemic ...

ABSTRACT Acute kidney injury (AKI) is a global health problem with significant long‐term harm if the prognosis is poor. Dual‐specificity phosphatase 2 (DUSP2) is involved in key regulatory pathways in several disease processes, but its function in renal pathophysiology is unclear.

Nail-patella syndrome is an autosomal dominant disorder characterized by nail dysplasia and skeletal anomaly. Some patients have been shown to have ultrastructural abnormalities of the glomerular basement membrane that result in nephrosis.
