HIV associated nephropathy (HIVAN) is mostly seen in patients of African decent.

HIV-1 is the strongest risk factor that is associated with the development of HIV-associated nephropathy. It has been found through murine studies, that showed HIV-1 infected mice expressed similar renal disease clinical and pathological characteristics of patients who had HIV-associated nephropathy.
=== Pathogenesis ===


'''Genetic and Enviornmental Co factors''':
===== Viral Factors =====


Genetic factors most certainly play an intricate role in disease progression. Approximately 90% of patient infected with HIV-associated nephropathy are black. This suggests a strong racial predilection for HIV-associated nephropathy. It is also important to note that through genetic tests APOL1 gene that is found on chromosome 22 is found more commonly in blacks than in any other races.

Environmental factors that are associated with HIV-associated nephropathy, include intravenous drug abuse, men having sex with other men, and those who have more than one sexual partner are at increased risk in the development of HIV.     
===== Genetic Factor =====

The development of HIV-associated nephropathy, is suggestive upon HIV-1 affecting the renal epithelium. This reasoning provides that localized replication of the virus in the renal epithelium is needed for the development of HIV-associated nephropathy. However, the mechanism of how the virus induces renal injure is still not conclusive. However, what is known is that in order for the virus to proliferate, the virus's gene products trigger the process of apoptosis. In some studies conducted, HIV protease that is encoded in the pol gene, is found to cleave Bcl-2, which lead to apoptosis of the renal cells in a monkey. However, this still not well established. The role cytokines play in the mechanism of HIV-associated nephropathy is still not clearly known, and is seen as non essential in HIV-associated nephropathy.
