Hamburg Glomerulonephritis Registry (C01)

• Subject Area: Medicine
• Term: since 2016
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 264599542

The “Hamburg Glomerulonephritis Registry” will provide a unique platform for all projects of this consortium to enable: 1) The characterization of specific diagnostic and therapeutic biomarkers and pathogenetic mechanisms in patients with glomerulonephritis; 2) The development and clinical implementation of automated histo-morphologic and multiplex-based classification and scoring algorithms; 3) Clinical transfer of pathogenetic mechanisms derived from animal experiments and in vitro studies; 4) Validation of molecular disease signatures in patients with glomerulonephritis; 5) Provide a platform to facilitate genetic studies, recruitment of patients for clinical trials and international cooperation with academic and industrial partners. The aim of the Hamburg Glomerulonephritis Registry is to facilitate the development of novel pathogenesis-based, individualized diagnostic biomarkers and therapeutic strategies for immune-mediated glomerular diseases.
