Membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis including C3 glomerulopathy v3.13 CFI Ida Ertmanska edited their review of gene: CFI: Changed publications to: 26895476, 26283675, 31919107, 37615951

Cohort of 398 French patients with C3 glomerulopathy ( n =296) or Ig-MPGN ( n =102). 53 rare variants were identified, including variants in CFI (16 patients, 13 variants, 24%), C3, and CFH. Thrombotic microangiopathy was present in 5/14 cases with CFI variants. 11 (84%) Pathogenic variants with decreased factor I production. Presence of a rare variant was associated with poor kidney survival. 5 variants yielded normal FI plasma levels, and 8 resulted in low FI plasma levels. 12/16 patients had confirmed C3 glomerulopathy and 4 had Ig-MPGN confirmed by histologic data. Kidney failure (dialysis or transplantation) was confirmed in 13/16 patients assessed. Authors found that CFI variants are associated with more severe C3G, and early, frequent recurrence after kidney transplantation. Of note, 90% of CFI variants identified in patients have been reported in gnomAD (most CFH variants are absent), suggesting that genetic susceptibility induced by CFI variants may be lower than those of CFH variants.

Authors acknowledge the Levine et al., 2020 study that found no enrichment, but dispute the methodology: "In this large series, 45% of patients with Ig-MPGN had a low C4 level, suggesting that secondary forms with the activation of the classical pathway may have been included in the study." - low C4 points to secondary MPGN, rather than genetic complement dysregulation driving the disease.

CFH genetic abnormalities were reported at 3.7% and 16% in the Italian and US cohorts (PMID: 26895476 & PMID: 26283675). In the US cohort, C3 patient cohort was enriched for rare variants in CFH, CFI, CFHR5, and CD46 genes (P<0.05). Italian study poses that "presence of mutations alone does not significantly increase the risk of Ig-MPGN or C3G, but it does so when combined with common susceptibility variants".

Cohort of 398 French patients with C3 glomerulopathy ( n =296) or Ig-MPGN ( n =102). 53 rare variants were identified, including variants in CFI, C3, and 30 variants in (57%) in CFH. 20/30 CFH variants were absent from gnomAD, and 24 were classified as Pathogenic according to ACMG criteria. Presence of a rare variant was associated with poor kidney survival. Plasma FH levels were low in 20 families, and normal in 10. 6/38 individuals were homozygous, 32 were heterozygous for CFH variants. Based on histology data, C3 glomerulopathy was confirmed in 32 patients, and Ig-MPGN in 6 individuals with CFH variants. Kidney failure (leading to dialysis or transplant) occured in 21/38 patients at time of report. Authors found that CFH variants are associated with more severe C3G, and early, frequent recurrence after kidney transplantation.

Cohort of 398 French patients with C3 glomerulopathy ( n =296) or Ig-MPGN ( n =102). 53 rare variants were identified, including variants in CFI (16 patients, 13 variants, 24%), C3, and CFH. Thrombotic microangiopathy was present in 5/14 cases with CFI variants. 11 (84%) Pathogenic variants with decreased factor I production. Presence of a rare variant was associated with poor kidney survival. 5 variants yielded normal FI plasma levels, and 8 resulted in low FI plasma levels. 12/16 patients had confirmed C3 glomerulopathy and 4 had Ig-MPGN confirmed by histologic data. Kidney failure (dialysis or transplantation) was confirmed in 13/16 patients assessed.

Authors acknowledge the Levine et al., 2020 study that found no enrichment, but dispute the methodology: "In this large series, 45% of patients with Ig-MPGN had a low C4 level, suggesting that secondary forms with the activation of the classical pathway may have been included in the study." - low C4 points to secondary MPGN, rather than genetic complement dysregulation driving the disease.

Cohort of 398 French patients with C3 glomerulopathy ( n =296) or Ig-MPGN ( n =102). 53 rare variants were identified, including variants in CFI (13 variants, 24%), C3, and CFH. 20/30 CFH variants were absent from gnomAD, and 24 were classified as Pathogenic according to ACMG criteria. Presence of a rare variant was associated with poor kidney survival. Plasma FH levels were low in 20 families, and normal in 10. 6/38 individuals were homozygous, 32 were heterozygous for CFH variants. Based on histology data, C3 glomerulopathy was confirmed in 32 patients, and Ig-MPGN in 6 individuals with CFH variants.

CFH genetic abnormalities were reported at 3.7% and 16% in the Italian and US cohorts (PMID: 26895476 & PMID: 26283675). In the US cohort, C3 patient cohort was enriched for rare variants in CFH, CFI, CFHR5, and CD46 genes (P<0.05). Italian study poses that "presence of mutations alone does not significantly increase the risk of Ig-MPGN or C3G, but it does so when combined with common susceptibility variants" e.g. CFH V62.

PMID: 26283675 - Bu et al 2016 - screened 193 patients using a gene panel facilitate genetic testing in aHUS, TTP, C3GN, and DDD. Report 1 variant found in a patient with aHUS and 3 in patients with C3 glomerulonephritis. Individual patient and variant information not given.

PMID: 25758434 - Imamura et al 2015 - 1 family. Daughter diagnosed with C3 glomerulonephritis, mother treated for membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis, and brother with hypocomplementemia without urinary abnormalities. All 3 found to have heterozygosity for CFB p.S367R that was not present in the unaffected father or younger sister. Other variants were found in the daughter, CFI p.R201S and C3 p.V916I were excluded as in other unaffected individuals or appear in high frequency in other populations. They propose that it is highly likely that p.S367R causes a gain of function in CFB through a structure–function relationship.; to: Associated with {Hemolytic uremic syndrome, atypical, susceptibility to, 4} (#612924) in OMIM.

PMID: 28210841 - Alfakeeh et al 2017 - 7-year-old boy has pathological features compatible with IC-MPGN. A heterozygous variant p.Glu566Arg in exon 13 of the CFB gene was found.
