@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.
📖 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
🤔 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

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