Latest Research

Recent studies have provided new insights into IgA nephropathy. Zhang et al. (2025) demonstrated that Cuscuta chinensis Lam. extract (CCLE) could be a promising therapeutic agent. Their research showed that CCLE improved kidney function in rats with IgA nephropathy by regulating specific signaling pathways. This suggests potential benefits for human treatment.

In another study, novel genetic locations associated with IgA nephropathy were identified, which could help understand its development and lead to new treatment strategies, as reported by Li et al. (2025).

Lastly, Lv et al. (2025) found that automated UF-5000 urinary erythrocyte parameters could effectively diagnose IgA nephropathy, potentially replacing traditional manual microscopy. This could streamline the diagnostic process and improve accuracy.
