Complement Inhibition in the Clinic: Are We Doing Enough to Protect Patients From Infection?
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 7, July 2026.Excessive complement activation is implicated in a broad range of diseases. Therapeutic approaches targeting the complement cascade, from pathway‐selective inhibition to terminal blockade, can effectively control disease activity. However, increasing degrees of complement inhibition are associated with a heightened susceptibility to bacterial, viral ...

Compartment‐Specific Immune Remodeling of Renal Aging With C1q‐Associated Podocyte Activation
The FASEB Journal, Volume 40, Issue 11, 15 June 2026.Aging repatterns the renal immune response in a compartment‐specific manner, distinct from chronic kidney disease (CKD) adaptation. Glomerular aging features C1q‐associated podocyte activation and macrophage engagement, whereas tubulointerstitial aging is marked by B‐cell aggregation and tertiary lymphoid structure expansion.

Secondary membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis
Kidney International, 1995 A 37-year-old man was transferred to Brigham and Women's Hospital for evaluation of progressive renal failure. His medical history was notable for intravenous drug use and heavy ethanol consumption but he denied their use for the last 7 years. He had had at least one bout of alcoholic hepatitis, which was diagnosed about 8 years previously. The patient

AGING MEDICINE, Volume 9, Issue 3, Page 258-264, June 2026.This 20‐year retrospective study reveals a significant increase in renal biopsy utilization and a pivotal shift in biopsy‐proven renal disease among Chinese elderly patients. Secondary glomerular nephropathy (particularly diabetic nephropathy and hypertensive nephropathy) has surpassed primary glomerular nephropathy as the leading biopsy‐proven ...

Shifting From Systemic to Precision‐Targeted Complement Therapies: Opportunities and Hurdles
European Journal of Immunology, Volume 56, Issue 6, June 2026.Complement therapeutics have expanded considerably, but systemic inhibitors remain limited by infection risks, breakthrough events, and loss of physiological functions. Emerging targeted approaches aim for organ‐, tissue‐, or cell‐specific modulation of complement activity, potentially offering greater precision while reducing treatment burden and ...

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 6, June 2026.ABSTRACT Background Diabetic nephropathy is among the most critical long‐term complications linked to diabetes, substantially influencing both morbidity and mortality. Although it was once largely associated with adults, diabetic kidney disease (DKD) has now become a leading source of kidney complications among children worldwide.
