The complement system plays a crucial role in regulating the inflammatory responses kidney transplantation, potentially contributing to early decline function. Ischemia-reperfusion injury (IRI) is among factors affecting graft outcomes and primary contributor delayed Complement activation, particularly alternative pathway, participates pathogenesis of IRI, involving all compartments. In particular, tubular epithelial cells often acquire dysfunctional phenotype that can exacerbate activation damage. Currently, complement-modulating drugs are under investigation for treatment diseases. Many these have shown potential therapeutic benefits, but no effective clinical treatments renal IRI been identified yet. this review, we will explore target factors, receptors, regulatory proteins, aiming highlight their value improving management IRI.

Approximately 50% of patients with chronic kidney disease due to C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) or primary immune-complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) will require dialysis and/or transplantation (KTx) within the first 10 years onset. Currently, there are no guidelines regarding indications for KTx post-transplant management. We therefore initiated an international online survey via Survey Monkey on C3G and IC-MPGN in children CKD stage 5. All centers European Society Paediatric Nephrology (ESPN) were invited participate survey, which was conducted from August 23 November 25, 2023. Sixty-five (63%) (n = 103) participated. Twenty-six percent had made at least one decision against living donation a child IC-MPGN. The main reason 88.2% these decisions concern about recurrence underlying any potential transplant. Eighty-eight indicated deceased as option; 12% decided not proceed all. Regarding decision-making management, none them referred existing recommendation by national regional guideline. For post-transplant, eculizumab treatment suggested 60% respondents. This shows considerable reluctance pediatric nephrologists list 5 donor transplantation. is mainly based fear combined lack reliable options. limited access affected best option failure requires further action.
