The extracellular neutral cysteine proteinase of Entamoeba histolytica degrades anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a.

Journal of Immunology, 1995
We have shown previously that the extracellular cysteine proteinase of Entamoeba histolytica trophozoites activates the alternative pathway of complement by specifically cleaving C3.

Acidosis activates complement system in vitro

Mediators of Inflammation, 1998
We investigated the in vitro effect of different form s of acidosis (pH 7.0) on the formation of anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a. Metabolic acidosis due to addition of hydrochloric acid (10 μ mol/ml blood) or lactic acid (5.5 μ mol/ml) to heparin blood (N=12)

Complement in Kidney Transplantation

Frontiers in Medicine, 2017
The complement system is considered to be an important part of innate immune system with a significant role in inflammation processes. The activation can occur through classical, alternative, or lectin pathway, resulting in the creation of anaphylatoxins

The role of the complement system in traumatic brain injury: a review [PDF]

, 2018
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is an important cause of disability and mortality in the western world. While the initial injury sustained results in damage, it is the subsequent secondary cascade that is thought to be the significant determinant of ...

Trafficking properties of plasmacytoid dendritic cells in health and disease. [PDF]

, 2010
Plasmacytoid dendritic cells (PDCs) represent a subset of circulating leukocytes characterized by the ability to release high levels of type I interferon (IFN). Under homeostatic conditions PDCs are confined to primary and secondary lymphoid organs. This

Macrophage Matrix Metalloproteinase-12 Dampens Inflammation and Neutrophil Influx in Arthritis

Cell Reports, 2014
Resolution of inflammation reduces pathological tissue destruction and restores tissue homeostasis. Here, we used a proteomic protease substrate discovery approach, terminal amine isotopic labeling of substrates (TAILS), to analyze the role of the ...
