Glomerulonefritis con c3 normal
We found that C3 was low and C4 was normal in 11 of 12 patients and that APFA was abnormal in seven of eight tested patients. The most common AP abnormality was the presence of C3Nef, an autoantibody directed against C3 convertase.

The pathogenesis, clinical presentation, diagnosis, and treatment of the C3 glomerulopathies (DDD and C3GN) are discussed in this topic. C4 glomerulopathies, as well as general discussions of the differential diagnosis of glomerular disease and the classification of membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (MPGN), are presented elsewhere.

In common day clinical practice, most of the time we determine complement activity by assessing serum C3 and C4 levels; a decreased C3 level means that the alternative complement pathway has been activated whereas a decreased C4 level means that the classical complement pathway has been activated.

Glomerulonephritis with dominant C3, a form of C3 glomerulopathy, typically presents with subnephrotic proteinuria and hematuria. Although a minority of patients may present with nephrotic syndrome, about half present with hypertension and impaired glomerular filtration rate. Up to 15% progress to end-stage renal disease. C3 glomerulopathy is rare with a typical age of onset of 30 years (range.
