Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: A Case Report [PDF]
Hemoytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is a rare type of thrombotic microangiopathies. Manifestations include thrombocytopenia, microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, and thrombi in small blood vessels. The prognosis is poor. Herein, we present a case of atypical HUS, which is very rare.

Meningococcal Serogroup Y Meningitis Reveals Inborn Factor B Deficiency
We report a novel case of complete complement Factor B deficiency revealed by invasive meningococcal disease. Using combined functional and genetic analyses, we demonstrate that loss of Factor B abolishes alternative pathway activity despite detectable protein levels. These findings provide a mechanistic framework relevant to complement diagnostics and

MALIGNANT ARTERIAL HYPERTENSION IN A CHILD WITH ATYPICAL HEMOLYTIC-UREMIC SYNDROME
Atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare orphan disease. In the Altai Region, two cases of aHUS among children have been recorded. The disease is characterized by a severe course with high mortality, frequent development of complications and a

Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome triggered by mRNA vaccination against SARS-CoV-2: Case report
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS), also called complement-mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome (CM-HUS), is a rare disease caused by dysregulation in the alternative complement activation pathway. It is a life-threatening condition causing ischemia

Atypical haemolytic-uraemic syndrome caused by factor H mutation: case report and new management strategies in children [PDF]
Atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome is causedby alternative complement pathway dysregulation. It has recently been recognised that most cases are due to genetic factors and a growing list of mutations has been described.

Thrombomodulin enhances complement regulation through strong affinity interactions with factor H and C3b-Factor H complex [PDF]
Introduction Coagulation and complement systems are simultaneously activated at sites of tissue injury, leading to thrombin generation and opsonisation with C3b.

Modulators of Diacylglycerol Kinase Activity: A Review of Advances and Challenges
ABSTRACT Catalyzing the conversion of diacylglycerol (DAG) in phosphatidic acid (PA), diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs) play a pivotal role in all the physiological processes modulated by these two bioactive lipids, such as lipid metabolism and immune regulation.
