Article Synopsis
- There is a growing global focus on understanding and treating IgA nephropathy (IgAN), particularly how innate immunity and the complement system play a key role in its development, alongside the important gut-kidney axis pathway.
- A comprehensive literature review from 2000 to 2023 revealed 720 publications on IgAN, with 436 being highly relevant; research indicates an increasing interest, especially from the United States, which leads in publication impact.
- Recent studies emphasize the interplay between IgAN and innate immunity, highlighting the gut-kidney axis's influence, indicating that understanding these relationships is essential for improving prevention, diagnosis, and treatment strategies.
and are members of the cell adhesion molecule subfamily III Ig/fibronectin. Although they have been reported to be involved in muscle and neural development at late developmental stage, their early roles in embryonic development remain unknown. Here, we discovered that in zebrafish, , but not , is expressed in dorsal forerunner cells (DFCs) and the epithelium of Kupffer's vesicle (KV), suggesting a potential role for in organ left-right (LR) patterning.
