    Abstract Infection-related glomerulonephritis is an immunologically mediated glomerular injury after an infection. Glomerulonephritis may occur with the infection or after a variable latent period. Poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis (PSGN) is the prototype of infection-related glomerulonephritis. The streptococcal antigens, nephritis-associated plasmin-like receptor and streptococcal exotoxin B, have emerged as major players in the pathogenesis of PSGN. Although PSGN is the most common infection-related glomerulonephritis in children, in adults, glomerulonephritis is secondary to bacteria such as staphylococci, viruses such as hepatitis C, and human immunodeficiency virus, and, rarely, parasitic infections. Supportive therapy is the mainstay of treatment in most infection-related glomerulonephritis. Treatment of the underlying infection with specific antibiotics and antiviral medications is indicated in some infections. Parasitic infections, although rare, may be associated with significant morbidity. Poststreptococcal glomerulonephritis is a self-limiting condition with a good prognosis. However, bacterial, viral, and parasitic infections may be associated with significant morbidity and long-term consequences. Epidemiologic studies are required to assess the global burden of infection-related glomerulonephritis. A better understanding of the pathogenesis of infection-related glomerulonephritis may unravel more treatment options and preventive strategies.

    Abstract IgA nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common glomerular disease worldwide, with an estimated annual incidence of 25 per million adults. Despite optimized supportive care, some patients fail to achieve disease control and suffer progressive deterioration of kidney function. In this subpopulation of patients, the Kidney Disease: Improving Global Outcomes 2021 guidelines recommend consideration of corticosteroids; however, their use is associated with significant side effects. Ongoing clinical trials are expected to identify corticosteroid-sparing therapies to help improve treatment and prognosis for patients with IgAN. It has been well-documented that the complement system plays a significant role in IgAN pathogenesis, and several complement inhibitors are now entering late-stage clinical development. This review evaluates what we know about the role of complement in the pathophysiology of IgAN and considers how the availability of targeted complement inhibitors may impact future clinical practice. Key knowledge gaps are evaluated, and research opportunities are recommended to help guide clinical decision-making and optimize patient outcomes. Such gaps include evaluating the relative contribution of the alternative and lectin pathways to disease pathogenesis, and the importance of determining the dominant pathway driving IgAN progression. Continued research into the staining of complement proteins in kidney biopsies and identifying targeted biomarkers to assess disease progression and treatment responses will also be needed to support the implementation of newer therapies in clinical practice. Considering the future horizons for enhancing the care of patients with IgAN, tackling the outstanding challenges now will help prepare for the best possible future outcomes.
