Additionally, kidney biopsy samples obtained from patients diagnosed with crescentic glomerulonephritis, IgA nephropathy, lupus nephritis, focal segmental glomerulosclerosis, membranous nephropathy, acute tubular injury, and hypertensive or vascular nephrosclerosis displayed heightened NLRP3 mRNA levels compared to those from healthy kidneys. This evidence concerns the gene NLRP3 and IgA glomerulonephritis.
