1 PHYSIOPATHOLOGIE DES NEPHROPATHIES A DEPOTS D IgA Renato Monteiro Inserm U699, Hôpital Bichat, Paris Seminaire National de Néphrologie Juin 2010 Berger s disease or IgA nephropathy Jean Berger et Nicole Hinglais Dépôts intercapillaires d IgA-IgG. J Urol Nephrol (Paris). Sept 1968; 74: «The disease was first described in 1801 by Heberden (of "Heberden's nodes" fame) in a 5-year old child with abdominal pain, hematuria, and purpura of the legs. Then in 1837, Johann Schonlein and Eduard Henoch built upon these discoveries by further characterizing the disease in pediatric populations. It was not until 1968 that the pathogenic role of IgA depositions was revealed, based on the work of French pathologist Jean Berger (left). Prior to his discovery that mesangial IgA deposits are present in these patients, many had believed IgG to be the sole nephritogenic immunoglobulin.» 1

2 History French disease? Food & environnement? Description at Necker Hosp, Paris Habib & Levy: Berger s disease Description by other groups: - Netherlands (Maintz and coll) - USA (West & Burkholder) - UK (Davies and coll) - Australia (Woodroffe & Clarkson) - Japan (Ueda and coll) Severe disease. Recurrence after Tx DIAGNOSIS OF IgAN: 1. Most of patients are asymptomatic 2. IgAN discovered during routine examination for jobs due to the presence of hematuria with or without proteinuria 3. Macroscopic hematuria following upper respiratory tract infection or after sport (back pain and hematuria). 4. Usually less than 40 years old 5. Definitive diagnosis is only made by kidney biopsy 2

3 Immunofluorescence IgG in 30-50% of cases IgM in 5-10% of cases (severity?) C3 in more than 60% of cases more λ than κ chains mesangial electrodense deposits IgA1 deposition in the mesangium Morphology Heterogeneity of lesions 3

4 The Oxford classification of IgA nephropathy Summary of four key pathological features 1. Mesangial Hypercellularity Score: 0.5 (M0) or < 0.5 (M1) 2. Segmental glomerulosclerosis: absent (S0) or present (S1) 3. Endocapillary hypercellularity: absent (E0) or present (E1) 4. Tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis : 25% (T0), 26-50% (T1), or > 50% (T2) International IgAN Network & Renal Pathology Society Cattran et al Kidney Int 76, , 2009 Roberts et al Kidney Int 76, , 2009 Correlation between Oxford classification and disease severity (examples) Glomerular lesions Definition Slope: ml/min per Criteria N of patients 1.73 m2 per year Minimal mesangial hypercellularity Without segmental sclerosis With segmental sclerosis M0, S0, E0 M0, S1, E ± ± 2.7 Mesangial hypercellularity Without segmental sclerosis With segmental sclerosis M1, S0, E0 M1, S1, E ± ± 7.6 Endocapillary proliferation Without segmental sclerosis With segmental sclerosis M0/1, S0, E1 M0/1, S1, E ± ± 10.0 Glomerular lesions Tubular atrophy/interstitial fibrosis Criteria N of patients Slope: ml/min per 1.73 m2 per year Minimal mesangial hypercellularity 25% < 26% M0, E0, T0 M0, E0,T ± ± 1.2 Mesangial hypercellularity 25% M1, E0, T ± 5.5 < 26% M1, E0, T ± 9.1 Endocapillary proliferation 25% -3.0 ± 1.9 < 26% M0/1, E1, T0 88 M0/1, E1, T ± 1.2 4

5 PREVALENCE: 1. South Europe, Asia, Australia, Finland: 20 to 40% of GN 2. UK, Canada, USA, Brazil: 5 to 15% of GN American indians (New Mexico): 38% of GN 3. Low prevalence in blacks CHARACTERISTICS: 1. More frequent between the 2 a or 3 a decade. 2. More frequent in males than females : 2:1 Japan; 6:1 Europe.

Abnormalities of IgA1 glycosylation and of immune system 2. Formation of IgA1 complexes: Role of IgA receptor type I 3. Defective clearance of IgA1 complexes 4. Mesangial deposition: Role of tranferrin receptor 5. Progression of IgAN towards renal failure 6
