Anti-CD20 monoclonal antibodies are gaining clinical relevance in the nephrology community due to their demonstrated efficacy and favorable safety profiles across short-, medium-, and long-term use. Initially developed for hematologic malignancies and multiple sclerosis, B-cell depletion therapies are now being investigated across a broader spectrum of autoimmune diseases, including glomerulopathies, both with and without associated podocytopathy. Recent advances have led to the development of novel anti-CD20 agents that are being used not only as potential alternatives to corticosteroids but also as adjunctive therapies in complex clinical settings.

Intestinal inflammation particularly inflammatory bowel disease poses significant clinical challenges due to its chronic nature, limited treatment efficacy and adverse effects of conventional therapies like corticosteroids and biologics. Biomimetic nanocarriers have emerged as a transformative strategy to overcome these limitations by leveraging natural cell membranes for targeted drug delivery. This review critically examines the application of biomimetic nanocarriers as precision therapeutics for intestinal inflammation.

Hydralazine is an antihypertensive that can induce immune-related adverse effects, such as hydralazine-induced lupus and hydralazine-induced antineutrophilic cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV). AAV involves necrotizing inflammation of small blood vessels, manifesting as fever, malaise, arthralgia, and myalgia, potentially leading to organ failure. Diagnosis includes clinical evaluation, serological testing for ANCA, and histopathological examination, confirmed by necrotizing granulomatous inflammation in affected tissues.

Immune reconstitution inflammatory syndrome (IRIS) is commonly described in individuals recovering from immunosuppression, particularly in HIV-positive patients initiating antiretroviral therapy. However, a similar rebound phenomenon can occur postpartum, a period marked by a shift from an immunotolerant to a pro-inflammatory state. IRIS in this context is underrecognized and may present atypically, complicating timely diagnosis.
