摘要

The Oxford histopathologic classification (MEST-C: scores for lesions indicating active glomerular inflammation, mesangial [M] and endocapillary [E] hypercellularity as well as cellular or fibrocellular crescents [C], and for segmental glomerulosclerosis [S] and interstitial fibrosis and/or tubular atrophy [T]) is useful in helping assess prognosis in patients with IgA nephropathy. Elements of this classification indicative of active glomerular inflammation, endocapillary hypercellularity and crescents, also have been found to be responsive to immunosuppressive therapy, potentially including newer agents specifically targeting mediators of such inflammation. In this issue of Kidney International, Bellur and coworkers identify histopathologic subtypes of segmental glomerulosclerosis in IgA nephropathy showing podocyte injury that also behave like active lesions, including showing improved outcomes with immunosuppression. This podocyte injury, identifiable only by kidney biopsy, may represent a potential therapeutic target in some patients with IgA nephropathy.

Evidence from the large VALIGA cohort validates the subclassification of focal segmental glomerulosclerosis in IgA nephropathyKidney InternationalVol. 105Issue 6PreviewEvidence from the Oxford IgA nephropathy (IgAN) cohort supports the clinical value of subclassifying focal segmental glomerulosclerosis lesions (S1). Using the larger Validation in IgA (VALIGA) study cohort, we investigated the association between podocytopathic changes and higher proteinuria, kidney outcome and response to immunosuppressive therapy. All biopsies were evaluated for glomeruli with segmental capillary occlusion by matrix ("not otherwise specified", NOS lesion), simple capsular adhesion without capillary occlusion (Adh), tip lesions, and podocyte hypertrophy (PH).
