Off-pump coronary bypass surgery adversely affects alveolar gas exchange [PDF]

, 2008
While the introduction of off-pump myocardial revascularization (OPCAB) has initially shown promise in reducing respiratory complications inherent to conventional coronary surgery, it has failed to eradicate them.

SALO, a novel classical pathway complement inhibitor from saliva of the sand fly Lutzomyia longipalpis. [PDF]

, 2016
Blood-feeding insects inject potent salivary components including complement inhibitors into their host's skin to acquire a blood meal. Sand fly saliva was shown to inhibit the classical pathway of complement; however, the molecular identity of the ...

Efficient chemical synthesis of human complement protein C3a [PDF]

, 2013
We report the total chemical synthesis of human C3a by one-pot native chemical ligation of three unprotected peptide segments, followed by efficient in vitro folding that yielded the anaphylatoxin C3a in high yield and excellent purity. Synthetic C3a was

Complement-dependent neuroinflammation in spinal cord injury: from pathology to therapeutic implications

Neural Regeneration Research
Spinal cord injury remains a major cause of disability in young adults, and beyond acute decompression and rehabilitation, there are no pharmacological treatments to limit the progression of injury and optimize recovery in this population.

FACTORS OF THE ACUTE PHASE OF INFLAMMATION AS MODULATORS OF THE INTERACTION OF MAST CELLS AND FIBROBLASTS

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2012
We investigated the influence of factors of the acute phase of inflammation (purified anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a, pentraxin C-reactive protein (CRP), and aggregated. IgG (aIgG) — as an analogue of circulating immune complexes) on the adhesive interaction

Indoor microbial exposure increases complement component C3a and C-reactive protein concentrations in serum

Heliyon
Indoor exposure to microbial growth, caused by moisture damage, has been an established health risk for several decades. It is likely that a damp indoor environment contains biological pollutants that trigger both the innate and adaptive branches of the ...

C4a: An Anaphylatoxin in Name Only [PDF]

Journal of Innate Immunity, 2015
Activation of complement leads to generation of the 3 anaphylatoxins C3a, C4a, and C5a. Although all 3 peptides are structurally similar, only C3a and C5a share a similar functional profile that includes the classic inflammatory activities and, more recently, developmental homing and regenerative properties among others.

THE NATURE OF ANAPHYLATOXIN [PDF]

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1915
1. The union of fresh serum of pregnant or immunized animals with the corresponding boiled protein (substratum) is accompanied by the formation of poisonous substances. 2. The poison originates from the serum as a result of its autodigestion, and not from the substratum. 3. The process of autodigestion may be determined by
