    Abstract The essential role of primary (non-motile) cilia during the development of multi-cellular tissues and organs is well established and is underlined by severe disease manifestations caused by mutations in cilia-associated molecules that are collectively termed ciliopathies. However, the role of primary cilia in non-dividing and terminally differentiated, post-mitotic cells is less well understood. Although the prevention of cells from re-entering the cell cycle may represent a major chore, primary cilia have recently been linked to DNA damage responses, autophagy and mitochondria. Given this connectivity, primary cilia in non-dividing cells are well positioned to form a signaling hub outside of the nucleus. Such a center could integrate information to initiate responses and to maintain cellular homeostasis if cell survival is jeopardized. These more discrete functions may remain undetected until differentiated cells are confronted with emergencies.

    Abstract Background: IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common primary glomerulonephritis in adults, which causes ESKD in ≤45% of patients in the long term. The optimal therapeutic approach remains undetermined. In this study, we report the results of a single-center retrospective analysis of patients with IgAN.
    Methods: We retrospectively evaluated the therapeutic approach and outcome of all patients at our center with biopsy-proven IgAN between 2000 and 2020, focusing on the effect of intravenous cyclophosphamide therapy combined with glucocorticoids ("immunosuppressive therapy group"). The control group received standard supportive care.
    Results: Patients in the immunosuppressive therapy group had worse kidney function before the initiation of therapy, as indicated by higher serum creatinine, more proteinuria, and a higher degree of hematuria than the control group; they also displayed a higher body mass index. The Oxford classification of IgA nephropathy (MEST-C score) suggested more inflammatory activity in the immunosuppressive therapy group, including more crescents and endocapillary hypercellularity. During the follow-up, proteinuria and hematuria decreased in both groups, and to a significantly greater extent in the immunosuppressive therapy group. Cyclophosphamide treatment significantly improved kidney function as determined by the fold-change of eGFR during the observation period. The number of infections and hospitalizations did not differ, but the incidence of diabetes was increased in the immunosuppressive therapy group.
    Conclusions: This study suggests immunosuppressive therapy with cyclophosphamide combined with glucocorticoids improves kidney function, proteinuria, and hematuria. The therapy was safe for infectious complications, but was associated with an increased incidence of diabetes, which might be attributable in part to the use of steroids in patients with a higher body mass index at baseline. Although immunosuppressive therapy in IgAN remains controversial, our findings suggest that at least some patients benefit from more aggressive therapy.

    Abstract Background: Leukopenia is a common complication after kidney transplantation. The etiology is multifactorial, with medication adverse effects and cytomegalovirus infection as main causes. Optimal strategies to prevent or treat posttransplant leukopenia remain unknown. We aimed to identify risk factors for leukopenia and to investigate the benefit of switching the immunosuppressive therapy to hydrocortisone as a continuous infusion.
    Methods: We retrospectively evaluated all patients with leukopenia after kidney transplantation between 2007 and 2017 at our center relative to age- and sex-matched controls.
    Results: Leukopenia was associated with the degree of rejection therapy before leukopenia, the immunosuppressive therapy before transplantation, and an induction therapy with rabbit antithymocyte globulin. Patients with leukopenia exhibited increased mortality, an increased incidence of bacterial and viral infections, and more acute rejections. Switching to hydrocortisone as a continuous infusion in patients with severe leukopenia decreased the duration of leukopenia and the incidence of subsequent viral infections, especially with cytomegalovirus.
    Conclusion: Leukopenia is a risk factor for infectious complications and mortality, and it is associated with acute rejection. Switching immunosuppressive therapy to hydrocortisone as a continuous infusion is a safe approach to reduce the duration of leukopenia and the incidence of viral infections.
