Complement Inhibition in the Clinic: Are We Doing Enough to Protect Patients From Infection?
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
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.

Chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) is the most common type of leukemia in western countries. The association between CLL and glomerular disease (GD) is rare. The most frequent GD associated with CLL is membranoproliferative membranous glomerulonephritis (

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 ...

Remission of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis type I with the use of tacrolimus
Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, albeit uncommon, is associated with considerable morbidity and mortality in children. Corticosteroids are the mainstay of therapy for severe disease, although data supporting their use are limited.

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

Autoimmune adrenalitis, asthma and membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis.
We report the first case of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis in a patient with chronic adrenal insufficiency due to autoimmune adrenalitis. In addition, this patient developed extrinsic asthma.

In 2004, the novel category of monoclonal IgG deposition disease has been proposed and termed “proliferative glomerulonephritis with monoclonal IgG deposits” (PGNMID). This disease is characterized by membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and staining

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.

Abstract Background and Purpose Overactivation of the alternative pathway (AP) underlies several diseases. Iptacopan is an oral, first‐in‐class, highly potent specific inhibitor of factor B, a key AP protease. Experimental Approach The analysis included data from two phase 1 randomised, volunteer‐blinded, placebo‐controlled studies: Study 1, a single ...
