Compartment‐Specific Immune Remodeling of Renal Aging With C1q‐Associated Podocyte Activation

open access: yesThe 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.

Shifting From Systemic to Precision‐Targeted Complement Therapies: Opportunities and Hurdles

open access: yesEuropean 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 ...

Primary membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis in Sfax, Tunisia: epidemiologic profile and prognostic factors

open access: yesThe Pan African Medical Journal, 2021
INTRODUCTION: Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is a rare kidney disease with a poor prognosis as 50% of patients attend the end stage renal failure after 10 years of follow up. Several factors have been described associated with poor renal
