"Non-Invasive Detection of iC3b/C3d Deposits in the Kidney Using a Novel Bioluminescent
Imaging Probe." pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36995143/
Time for a 🧵 & #tweetorial 👇
🧵(1/10): Histologic quantification of complement C3 deposits in kidney biopsies provides prognostic information in patients with:
- IgA nephropathy,
- ANCA-associated glomerulonephritis,
- Membranous nephropathy,
- Focal segmental glomerulosclerosis,
- Diabetic nephropathy.

A new milestone 🎉: my 3⃣0⃣th publication!
Published @amjtransplant, entitled:
"An interleukin 6-based genetic risk score strengthened with interleukin 10 polymorphisms associated with long-term #kidney allograft outcomes."
➡️pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/36453708/
Using #genetics 🧬, we probed if interleukin 6 (IL-6) could be a target in kidney #transplantation to improve graft survival & if a genetic risk score could improve prognostication.
