    ABSTRACT: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is a progressive form of kidney disease defined by glomerular deposition of IgA. Here we performed a genome-wide association study of 10,146 kidney-biopsy-diagnosed IgAN cases and 28,751 controls across 17 international cohorts. We defined 30 genome-wide significant risk loci explaining 11% of disease risk. A total of 16 loci were new, including TNFSF4/TNFSF18, REL, CD28, PF4V1, LY86, LYN, ANXA3, TNFSF8/TNFSF15, REEP3, ZMIZ1, OVOL1/RELA, ETS1, IGH, IRF8, TNFRSF13B and FCAR. The risk loci were enriched in gene orthologs causing abnormal IgA levels when genetically manipulated in mice. We also observed a positive genetic correlation between IgAN and serum IgA levels. High polygenic score for IgAN was associated with earlier onset of kidney failure. In a compr

Discuss with your doctor

  • genetic risk for IgA nephropathy Moderate

    Genetic carrier status warrants physician awareness for appropriate screening and nephrology referral consideration

    Share rs12139150-G carrier status with physician

Screening

  • kidney disease and IgA nephropathy screening Moderate

    Carriers of rs12139150-G have 1.093x increased risk for IgA nephropathy

    Discuss screening schedule and intervals with kidney specialist or primary care physician
