Review relation between abnormal susceptibility to glomerulonephritis and glomerulonephritis

[anna-anagnostop]

Currently, the MP has the following glomerulonephritis terms:

• glomerulonephritis MP:0002743 (under cortical renal glomerulopathies and kidney inflammation) with 235 annotations
• abnormal susceptibility to glomerulonephritis MP:0021199 (under abnormal renal glomerulus morphology) with deceased susceptibility MP:0021200 and increased susceptibility MP:0021201 child terms but zero annotations

Need to review our annotations to glomerulonephritis MP:0002743 to see if we need to:

• [ ] make increased susceptibility to glomerulonephritis a direct child of glomerulonephritis
• [ ] move any of our existing annotations to a more appropriate (e.g., decreased) susceptibility term
• [ ] tweak term label/add a comment to susceptibility terms to indicate whether induction of glomerulonephritis occurs by external agent/experimental means

Discussion with Leigh from HPO as HPO has terms for:

• Glomerulopathy (HP:0100820) defined as ‘Inflammatory or noninflammatory diseases affecting the glomeruli of the nephron.’
• Lobular glomerulopathy (HP:0008636),
• Glomerulonephritis (HP:0000099)
• Glomerular sclerosis (HP:0000096) all of these terms are siblings So are glomerulonephritis and glomerulosclerosis actually 'diseases' affecting the glomeruli or not?

There is also the issue of having a term (cortical renal glomerulopathies) in the MP that is explicitly defined as a disease. This is an old term, possibly we should obsolete it. There are ~34 annotations directly to this term we could possibly review and move these notes but a quick glance does show several that mention disease or lesion or ..opathy in the note.
