Article Synopsis
  • - Diabetic kidney disease (DKD) is a major cause of kidney failure linked to diabetes and obesity, but effective treatments to slow its progression are currently unavailable.
  • - Research on single-cell transcriptomic profiles from DKD patients and mouse models reveals a growing population of macrophages expressing TREM2 in mice fed a high-fat diet, which correlates with obesity and diabetes.
  • - In mice lacking TREM2, increased kidney damage and cell injury were observed, indicating that boosting TREM2 macrophages could be a promising therapeutic approach for DKD.

Organ shortage is a major challenge in kidney transplantation but the use of older donors, often with co-morbidities, is hampered by inconsistent outcomes. Methods of accurately stratifying marginal donor organs by clinical and histological assessment are lacking. To better understand organ variability, we profiled the transcriptomes of 271 kidneys from deceased donors at retrieval.

Thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA) has been observed in some patients receiving interferon beta (IFNβ) therapy for relapsing-remitting multiple sclerosis, but little is known about its clinical features and outcomes. We searched the literature to identify cases with IFNβ-related TMA and assessed their pattern of organ involvement, the presence of prodromal manifestations, the treatments used, and the outcomes. Thirty-five articles met the inclusion criteria, and data of 67 patients were collected.

Objective: Previous studies suggested that distinct phenotypes of eosinophilic granulomatosis with polyangiitis (EGPA; formerly known as Churg-Strauss syndrome) could be determined by the presence or absence of antineutrophil cytoplasmic antibodies (ANCA), reflecting predominant vasculitic or eosinophilic processes, respectively. This study explored whether ANCA-based clusters or other clusters can be identified in EGPA.

Methods: This study used standardized data of 15 European centers for patients with EGPA fulfilling widely accepted classification criteria.
