Regulation of kidney filtration in health and disease has been an enigma - not so much anymore. We have made great strides as a field and are on our way to new treatments. @jingelfinger @ASNKidney @dgfn_ev @Tobias_B_Huber @AstridWeins @ISGDtweets @salimhayek – at Galveston, TX
A new editorial describes the science behind detecting and treating autoimmunity in kidney disease. Read the editorial “Kidney Disease and Antinephrin Antibodies” by Jochen Reiser, M.D., Ph.D., and Julie R. Ingelfinger, M.D., from @utmbhealth: nej.md/4fnl1zD

This tweet will change your perspective on autoimmunity. High levels of autoantibodies at healthy baseline associate with a 41% reduced risk of febrile malaria. Excited to share this great story from Kalifabougou, Mali! @MrtcParasito authors.elsevier.com/a/1jHsD… 🙏to all contributors!

Presented at #ERA24: Antinephrin autoantibodies occur in adults with minimal change disease and children with idiopathic nephrotic syndrome and appear to be disease activity markers. Their binding at slit diaphragms may induce podocyte dysfunction. nej.md/3UU5o9u
