IgA nephropathy is the most common glomerulonephritis worldwide; the global incidence is 2.5/100,000 per year amongst adults. [1] Aggressive Berger's disease is on the NORD list of rare diseases. [2] Primary IgA nephropathy is characterized by deposition of the IgA antibody in the glomerulus.
IgA nephropathy: Kidneys: IgA autoantibodies Confirmed 3.5 per 100,000 [47] Membranous nephropathy: Kidneys: Anti-PLA2R antibodies Confirmed 10 per 100,000 [48] Lupus nephritis: Kidneys: Anti-dsDNA, Anti-Sm, Anti-nuclear antibodies Confirmed Up to 60% of those with Lupus [49] Interstitial nephritis: Kidneys: Various autoantibodies Probable
It is also the main hepatitis C associated nephropathy. [citation needed] It also is related to a number of autoimmune diseases, prominently systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), Class IV. Also found with Sjögren syndrome, rheumatoid arthritis, inherited complement deficiencies (esp C3 deficiency), scleroderma, Celiac disease. [16]
IgA nephropathy is the most common cause of MesPGN. [3] It is thought abnormally glycosylated IgA form polymers and deposit in the mesangium. [3] Subsequently, IgA immune complexes bind to IgA receptors on mesangial cells and induce injury to mesangial cells through release of cytokines and growth factors that promote infiltration of leukocytes ...
IgA nephropathy, also known as Berger's disease, is the most common type of glomerulonephritis, and generally presents with isolated visible or occult hematuria, occasionally combined with low grade proteinuria, and rarely causes a nephritic syndrome characterised by proteinuria, and visible blood in the urine. IgA nephropathy is classically ...
IgM nephropathy or immunoglobulin M nephropathy (IgMN) is a kind of idiopathic glomerulonephritis that is marked by IgM diffuse deposits in the glomerular mesangium. [1] IgM nephropathy was initially documented in 1978 by two separate teams of researchers.

English: What is IgA nephropathy? IgA nephropathy, sometimes called Berger disease, is a type of nephritic syndrome where abnormal IgA antibody is formed, which results in immune complex deposition in the glomerular mesangium, leading to kidney disease. This video covers the pathophysiology, signs and symptoms, and treatment of IgA nephropathy.
