Is IgA Nephropathy Hereditary

Most of the patients get worried about whether they could pass the disease on their children. Let first know the cause of the IgA Nephropathy and Find the answer.
The root cause of the IgA nephropathy is that the IgA immune globulin builds up in the glomerular mesangial area, which would disease the renal tissues through injuring the renal inherent cells. The IgA immune globulin couldn’t be delivered to the fetus, so the IgA nephropathy patients can’t transfer the disorder to their descendants.

But a great number of the clinical data show that the children whose parents have the IgA nephropathy are at high risk of developing the disorder, even if the IgA nephropathy is not hereditary. So, the patients with IgA nephropathy should seek medical treatment as soon as possible.
