MPO-ANCA associated crescentic glomerulonephritis with numerous immune complexes: case report
Background Antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated crescentic glomerulonephritis (CGN) is a major cause of rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN). ANCA-associated CGN is generally classified into pauci-immune RPGN, in which there are

In IgA nephropathy (IgAN), innate and adaptive immune cells display distinct spatial compartmentalisation, with macrophages predominating within glomeruli and CD4+ T cells constituting the major immune population in inflammatory foci. Glomeruli with distinct pathological morphologies exhibit morphology‐dependent immune infiltration patterns and ...

The X Factor in Immunity: Sex Differences Shaped by the X Chromosome
ABSTRACT There are sex differences with immune responses where females exhibit stronger immune responses compared to males. Both sex hormones and sex chromosome differences between males and females contribute to the observed sex differences with innate and adaptive immune cell composition and function.

Autoimmunity in rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis
Rapidly progressive glomerulonephritis (RPGN) is characterized histologically by focal necrotizing glomerular lesions with crescent formation, and clinically by the development of renal failure within weeks or months. Although RPGN may be associated with a variety of systemic diseases, or develop on a background of primary glomerulonephritis, two ...
