TRIM40 and IgA glomerulonephritis: In IgA nephropathy, one of the most common primary glomerulonephritis, has been linked to aberrant activation of NLRP3 inflammasome, TRIM40 has been shown to suppress NLRP3 activation by inducing its ubiquitylation and degradation, consequently loss of TRIM40 leads to overactivation of NLRP3 and proliferation of glomerular mesangial cells (Shen et al., 2021).
