There are, however, some differences, as the episode of kidney injury in IgAN is mainly chronic and presents with less crescentic lesions and more sclerotic lesions than in IgAV-nephritis; in addition, IgAV-nephritis shows more glomerular capillaritis with subendothelial IgA deposition and significant elevation of serum inflammatory cytokines (13). Here, CD79A is linked to nephritis.
