Abstract

IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a kidney disease that is characterized by the deposition of IgA (immunoglobulin A) in the kidney tissue, leading to inflammation and damage. This disease is a common chronic glomerulopathy that affects people worldwide (1). Therefore, it is crucial to identify factors that worsen the disease, monitor its activity, and predict appropriate treatments. Complement component 4d (C4d) is a protein that is involved in the activation of the complement system, which is a part of the immune system.
