Abstract excerpt
AIM: It has been reported that the innate immune system plays a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN). To explore non-invasive monitoring of disease activity in children with IgAN, we examined whether expressions of mRNA for innate immunity-associated functional molecules: CC ligand chemokine 5 (CCL5), fractalkine/CX3CL1, interferon-γ-induced protein 10 (IP-10), monocyte...
