Clinical Profile and Outcome of C3-Dominant Glomerulonephritis: Retrospective Study.

Kidney & blood pressure research2026

Complement 3 (C3)-dominant glomerulonephritis (GN) are rare diseases resulting from alternative complement pathway dysregulation; they include C3 glomerulopathy (C3G), paraprotein-associated GN, and C3-dominant infection-related GN (IRGN). To our knowledge, long-term follow-up studies of clinical profile and outcomes of this rare disorder are sparse. We studied kidney histopathology baseline findings, outcomes, treatment, and its complications of C3-dominant GN in our setting. We studied the clinical, pathological profiles, and outcomes of patients with C3-dominant GN. This study was a single centre, retrospective, case record based observational study at a tertiary care hospital in Southern India. Consecutive patients of C3-dominant GN on kidney biopsy from 2013 to 2023 were included. Demography, laboratory and histopathological data, treatment and outcomes were studied. Of 2,175 kidney biopsies, 141 (6.48%) showed C3-dominant GN; 74 (52.5%) C3G, 67 (47.5%) IRGN. Median age was 43 years (IQR 29-59.5), males 90 (63.8%). Preceding skin/throat infections were seen in 32/141 (22.7%). At presentation, median serum creatinine was 1.7 mg/dL (IQR: 1.2-3.6), eGFR <60 mL/min/1.73 m2 in 91/141 (64.5%), 111/141 (78.7%) had low serum C3 levels. Nephrotic proteinuria was seen in 65/141 (46%), Crescents in 45 (31.9%). Remission was partial in 38/141 (27%), complete in 45/141 (31.9%) and 31/141 (22%) progressed to end-stage kidney disease (ESKD). On immunosuppression, commonest infection was pneumonia in 15/70 (21.4%) and 27/141 (19.1%) died at an average follow-up of 25.7 months. Diabetes mellitus, percentage sclerosis, and presence of crescents predicted development of CKD stage 5. Over 10 years, C3-dominant GN represented 6.48% of kidney biopsies. Nephrotic proteinuria and kidney failure are common at presentation with 58% achieving some remission, 22% going on to ESKD and mortality of 19%.

A pediatric case of C3 glomerulonephritis initially misclassified as IgA nephropathy with a favorable response to C3-targeted therapy.

Pediatric nephrology (Berlin, Germany)2026 Mar 22

C3 glomerulopathy is an ultra-rare kidney disease driven by dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway fluid phase C3 convertase. We report the case of a previously healthy 13-year-old girl who presented with concurrent nephrotic and nephritic syndrome and low complement C3. Her initial kidney biopsy surprisingly showed mesangioproliferative glomerulonephritis with dominating IgA deposits resulting in a diagnosis of IgA nephropathy. Despite standard immunosuppressive treatment with prednisone and mycophenolic acid plus angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitors, she achieved only partial remission and subsequently relapsed, exhibiting severe, persistent C3 consumption (6-8 mg/dl) and sustained C5b9 activation (1059 ng/ml). A repeat biopsy 1.2 years later established the definitive diagnosis of C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) with a membranoproliferative pattern. C3NEF antibodies were negative, and no pathological variant was detected in the genetic study. After 1 year and 9 months without response to immunosuppressive treatment, the C3 inhibitor pegcetacoplan was initiated. The patient achieved rapid and complete remission within 3 months, marked by normalization of proteinuria, from 2747 mg/day (urine protein-to-creatinine ratio [UPCR] 2.66 mg/mg) pre-treatment to 19 mg/d (UPCR 0.02 mg/mg) and complement activation markers (from 1162 ng/ml pre-treatment to C5b9 92 ng/ml; reference value 30-150 ng/ml). This case highlights the inherent diagnostic complexity of C3GN, suggesting the critical role of repeat biopsies in treatment-refractory, complement-dysregulated glomerulonephritis. It strongly supports the potential efficacy of C3 inhibition as a targeted therapeutic approach for patients with C3GN.

C3 Glomerulopathy Diagnosis, Current Treatments, and Emerging Therapies.

Kidney medicine2026 Mar

C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is characterized by prominent deposition of complement component C3 in the kidney glomeruli, leading to glomerular inflammation. C3G is a rare and complex pattern of injury caused by dysregulation of the alternative pathway of complement system and occurs in both children and adults. It can happen because of genetic and acquired factors. Kidney biopsy is the gold standard for diagnosing C3G. About 50% of cases progress to kidney failure, and traditional treatment strategies, including immunosuppression and supportive care, have demonstrated variable efficacy. In this review, we aim to provide a comprehensive overview of pathophysiology, clinical presentations, and diagnostic criteria of C3G. Additionally, we will discuss current treatment guidelines and ongoing clinical trials.

Primary membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis: natural history, pathogenesis, and treatment.

Frontiers in nephrology2026

Primary membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN) is an ultrarare disease characterized by immunofluorescence microscopy as either immune-complex mediated (IC-MPGN) or C3 glomerulopathy (C3), the latter subdivided by electron microscopy to C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN) and dense deposit disease (DDD). Both IC-MPGN and C3G typically have obvious C3 staining differentiating them from other causes of MPGN histology. Secondary causes must be excluded, including infections, autoimmune disease, and neoplasia. Clinical presentations are variable, including urinary sediment abnormalities, nephrotic syndrome, or a rapidly progressive course. The prognosis is unfavorable with about 50% reaching kidney failure by 10 years. Recurrence following transplantation is frequent, and allograft survival is shortened. The pathogenesis involves dysregulation of the alternate pathway (AP) of complement. Possibly 20% of patients harbor pathogenic mutations in AP proteins or their regulators, and up to 80% have autoantibodies impairing normal regulation. Paraproteins are found in 20 - 40% of otherwise primary MPGN, either directly detectable on biopsy (IC-MPGN) or as dysregulators of the AP. Therapy of MPGN begins with supportive care as for all glomerulopathies. Paraproteins require clone-directed therapy. When immunosuppression is considered, complement inhibition should be first line. Two agents are now FDA approved for C3G, the oral Factor B inhibitor iptacopan and the subcutaneous C3-inhibitor pegcetacoplan, the latter also approved for IC-MPGN. If complement inhibition is unavailable, MMF/steroids may be considered. Following transplantation, protocol biopsies are needed to detect early recurrence with the intent of complement inhibition.

Proteomic Profiling of Complement Components in Glomerular Disease.

Laboratory investigation; a journal of technical methods and pathology2026 Feb 18

The complement system plays a central role in glomerular disease development and resolution. Currently, renal biopsies assess the presence of complement through limited immunofluorescence stains (C3 and C1q). With >50 total proteins and fragments involved in the complement cascade, this method offers a severely limited view into the mechanisms of tissue injury orchestrated by complement activation. A more comprehensive evaluation of complement components will advance the understanding of complement involvement in glomerular diseases by allowing for multiplex detection of complement cascade proteins and activation products, which can be achieved by mass spectrometry (MS). Data-independent acquisition MS was performed following extraction of proteins from tissue lysates, microdissected glomeruli, or protein G immunoprecipitates from residual kidney biopsy tissue. Cohorts included patients with lupus nephritis, membranous nephropathy and membranous lupus nephritis, diabetic glomerulosclerosis, C3 glomerulonephritis, and control biopsies. Abundances of complement components by MS correlated with immunofluorescence intensity of C1q on kidney biopsies. Increased abundances of complement classical, lectin, final common pathway, and regulatory proteins correlated with disease activity in lupus nephritis. Complement protein abundances of final common pathway components were heterogeneous between patients with the same disease state, including diabetic glomerulosclerosis and various forms of proliferative glomerulonephritis. Finally, complement proteins and their activation products can be mapped to determine which components are impacted among individuals and between disease states. In conclusion, complement proteins and some of their split products can be reliably measured by MS of kidney biopsies, which can enhance our understanding of complement-mediated tissue injury and heterogeneity in glomerular diseases.
