🧬Introducing our first-ever handbook of genetic nephrology, with free download until 8/2025

https://t.co/S4L4M1cFMh

@AndrewMallett8 and I saw a gap in foundational reading of genetic nephrology and decided to gather articles that clinician and learners can all enjoy

Combining force of Nephrology and Hematology division from @SirirajMedicine hospital to improve diagnostic service for aHUS and PNH. Thank you @drdannyhsu for the visit to bring us together.

Genetic testing in kidney transplant candidates
🔗 https://t.co/JLqSilqKzq
• 38.5% positive results
• High yield in unknown ESKD & HTN-related ESKD
• Improves diagnosis & donor evaluation @KristaLentine @asnpublications @AST_LDCOP @AST_KPCOP @nkf @VUMCDiscoveries @slunephrons

Thank you for highlighting our work!

📖 This weekend don't miss our @Kidney_Int #ISNFridaySelection: Nephrotic syndrome genomic discovery in the Mass General Brigham Biobank identifies monoallelic MEFV variants as a risk factor for focal segmental glomerulosclerosis https://t.co/5YtR6on4a6

Grateful for a rich and memorable stretch in Asia this spring, from #ISNWCN in Yokohama to scientific exchange sessions in Korea during the gorgeous cherry blossom season!!

It was a privilege to share insights on genetic complementopathies in kidney disease, aHUS with triggers, the importance of multidisciplinary teams in aHUS and engage in interactive case-based discussions.

The warmth of reconnecting with friends and colleagues made the experience most meaningful - always inspired and deeply appreciative of our community🙏

Fascinating
Perhaps subendothelial deposits in IgAN is worth further clarification

[International Society of Glomerular Disease @ISGDtweets]

🤔 What makes IgA pathogenic in IgAN❓

👉🏻 A subgroup of GdIgA1with strong affinity for the glomerulus 🫘

💡 IgA type anti-MEsangial Cell Antibodies (Ig-MESCA) are GdIgA1-Ab.

🎯 Mesangial cells

@janewitwong - excellent talk explaining Mendelian disease to risk architecture in nephrology @ISNWCN #ISNWCN

[Janewit Wongboonsin, MD, MS @janewitwong]

So proud of my friend @basmeomeo, on behalf of Thai nephrologist, on receiving the best clinical research awards from @Kidney_Int @ISNWCN #isnwcn

Reuniting with friends at #ISNWCN @ISNkidneycare @ISNWCN

Excited for the genetic session on Tuesday

@SolosVJR If the quantity is quite high in the serum already, it may be expected that they will be benignly present in If more

[Janewit Wongboonsin, MD, MS @janewitwong]

@rc_oncneph Thank you for the teaching for our fellow !!

[Janewit Wongboonsin, MD, MS @janewitwong]

From biobank genomic analysis to finding new potential disease association, I have been a great journey. Thank you @kidneyomicsamps for being the best mentor !!

[Katalin Susztak @KSusztak]

🚨 Just out from our lab in @CircAHA! 🚨 We know APOL1 risk variants (RVs) cause FSGS. But what about Hypertension-Attributed Kidney Disease (H-CKD)? 🤔 H-CKD is distinct: slowly progressing, low albuminuria, and massive vascular damage. Is it just secondary to kidney injury? Or is it a primary vascular defect? We found the answer.🧵👇https://t.co/t6yS0xUCf3

Part 1 of ISN’s “Genetics in Kidney Disease” curriculum is now live
with 5 recorded lectures & expert panel discussions on various key topics.

Co-chaired & designed with #BeckyMa, I hope you will find these valuable. Remaining 6 to release Spring 2026

7. Genetic testing in transplant candidates is reshaping practice, informing recurrence risk, donor selection, and living-donor safety. Precision medicine is finally at the bedside. Slide from Dr. Thomas
