Two decades ago, pedigrees of patients with IgA nephropathy (IgAN) from Pike County, KY, USA, provided evidence for a role of genetic factors in the pathogenesis of this disorder. Subsequently additional pedigrees were described for several communities from northern Italy. Recently, we found another cluster of patients in the Clay County, KY area, about 100 miles southwest of Pike County.
