IgA Nephropathy With Membranoproliferative Pattern and Resistance to Immunosuppressive Therapy in Two Patients With Cofactor I Pathogenic Variant. [PDF]
Nephrology (Carlton)ABSTRACT Complement system (CS) overactivation is one of the main causes of kidney damage in IgA nephropathy (IgAN), and it mainly involves the alternative pathway (AP). Additionally, pathogenic complement variants in CS‐related genes are reported in IgAN with associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA). Here we report two patients with IgAN presenting

Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis [PDF]
Pediatric Nephrology, 2009 Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis is an uncommon kidney disorder characterized by mesangial cell proliferation and structural changes in glomerular capillary walls. It can be subdivided into idiopathic and secondary forms, which are differentially diagnosed by a review of clinical features, laboratory data, and renal histopathology.
