FFPE tissues were collected and prepared following institutional protocols. Validation kidney biopsy specimens included those from individuals with ANCA-associated CGN from the Hamburg Glomerulonephritis Registry. Control specimens were sourced from nephrectomies on renal cell carcinoma patients. Kidney biopsy samples from individuals with DKD were obtained from the Georges Pompidou European Hospital. Research kidney biopsy samples from young adults with T2D were collected through harmonized protocols from the Renal HEIR and IMPROVE-T2D studies. Normative tissue samples were provided by healthy participants in the CROCODILE study.
