Th1 Cytokines Signature in 2 Cases of IgA Nephropathy Flare after mRNA-Based SARS-CoV-2 Vaccine: Exploring the Pathophysiology

Abstract: mRNA-based vaccines have dramatically shifted the course of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) pandemic. IgA nephropathy (IgAN) flare is the most reported renal adverse effect after the administration of these vaccines. Unraveling the mechanistic pathways leading to these flares is necessary to confirm a causal association. Herein, we report 2 cases of IgAN flare after SARS-CoV-2 vaccination in patients previously diagnosed with IgAN. We describe and compare the clinical and analy… Show more

“…IgA nephropathy is the most common GN after receiving the mRNA COVID-19 vaccine, followed by minimal change disease [ 8 – 10 ]. In the literature, 47 cases of IgA nephropathy following mRNA COVID-19 vaccination have been reported (30 de novo and 17 flare-ups) thus far [ 3 , 9 40 ]. Gross hematuria within 1–2 days after vaccination was the most common initial presentation, followed by acute kidney injury.…”

“…The global COVID-19 vaccine campaign has been actively underway to overcome the COVID-19 pandemic. mRNA COVID-19 vaccines deliver lipid nanoparticle-encapsulated mRNA, which encodes the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike protein and triggers robust innate and adaptive immune responses [ 1 3 ]. The efficacy and safety of BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273 have been demonstrated in clinical trials and real-world studies [ 4 7 ].…”
