Complement deposits can be identified using electron microscopy and immunofluorescence. Clinical studies have shown that complement inhibitors offer significant therapeutic potential. Iptacopan and pegcetacoplan are particularly noteworthy in this regard\u2014both complement inhibitors received an expanded indication for C3G in Switzerland this year.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<div class=\"pmpro\"><div class=\"pmpro_card pmpro_content_message\"><div class=\"pmpro_card_content\">Dieser Inhalt ist nur f\u00fcr Benutzer der Gruppe: Medizinische Fachperson zug\u00e4nglich <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/my-account\/packages\/\">Jetzt beitreten<\/a><\/div><div class=\"pmpro_card_actions pmpro_font-medium\">Already a member? <a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/log-in\/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmedizinonline.com%2Fen%2Fiptacopan-and-pegcetacoplan-open-up-new-horizons%2F\">Log in here<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>To diagnose C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and distinguish it from other membranoproliferative glomerulopathies, a kidney biopsy is required in addition to measuring the concentration of the complement protein C3 in the&#8230;&hellip;... <\/p>\n<div class=\"pmpro\"><div class=\"pmpro_card pmpro_content_message\"><div class=\"pmpro_card_content\">Dieser Inhalt ist nur f\u00fcr Benutzer der Gruppe: Medizinische Fachperson zug\u00e4nglich <br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/my-account\/packages\/\">Jetzt beitreten<\/a><\/div><div class=\"pmpro_card_actions pmpro_font-medium\">Already a member? <a href=\"https:\/\/medizinonline.com\/en\/log-in\/?redirect_to=https%3A%2F%2Fmedizinonline.com%2Fen%2Fiptacopan-and-pegcetacoplan-open-up-new-horizons%2F\">Log in here<\/a><\/div><\/div><\/div>","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":565918,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"pmpro_default_level":"","cat_1_feature_home_top":false,"cat_2_editor_pick":false,"csco_eyebrow_text":"C3 glomerulopathy\u2014can its progression be halted?
