Influenza B-Associated Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome [PDF]
Hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) triggered by influenza virus (iHUS) is rare. Influenza A infections have been described to trigger atypical HUS (aHUS) in individuals with an underlying genetic complement dysregulation. To date there are only few reports

Key Points • We prove in genotype-matched complement-mediated aHUS cohorts that C5 inhibition results in a statistical improvement in ESKD-free survival.• We demonstrate that biallelic pathogenic mutations in EXOSC3 cause eculizumab nonresponsive aHUS.

Hyperfunctional complement C3 promotes C5-dependent atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome in mice [PDF]
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is frequently associated in humans with loss-of-function mutations in complement-regulating proteins or gain-of-function mutations in complement-activating proteins.

The genetics of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]
Abstract Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a disorder characterized by thrombocytopenia and microangiopathic hemolytic anemia due to endothelial injury. aHUS is felt to be caused by defective complement regulation due to underlying genetic mutations in complement regulators or activators, most often of the alternative pathway.

How I diagnose and treat atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome.
Our understanding and management of atypical haemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) has dramatically improved in the last decade. Atypical HUS has been established as a prototypic disease resulting from a dysregulation of the complement alternative C3 ...

Analysis of linear antibody epitopes on factor H and CFHR1 using sera of patients with autoimmune atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]
Introduction: In autoimmune atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), the complement regulator factor H (FH) is blocked by FH autoantibodies, while 90% of the patients carry a homozygous deletion of its homolog complement FH-related protein 1 (CFHR1 ...

Infection frequently triggers thrombotic microangiopathy in patients with preexisting risk factors : a single-institution experience [PDF]
Thrombotic microangiopathies are rare conditions characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, microthrombi, and multiorgan insult. The disorders, which include hemolytic uremic syndrome and thrombotic thrombocytopenic purpura, are often acute and ...

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a type of thrombotic microangiopathy and is characterized by microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney failure. The complement cascade plays an integral role in aHUS.
