Heterogeneity but individual constancy of epitopes, isotypes and avidity of factor H autoantibodies in atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Factor H (FH) autoantibodies are present in 6-10% of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) patients, most of whom have homozygous deficiency of the FH-related protein FHR-1. Although the pathogenic role of the autoantibodies is established, little is

Serological and genetic complement alterations in infection-induced and complement-mediated hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Background: The role of complement in the atypical form of hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) has been investigated extensively in recent years. As the HUS-associated bacteria Shiga-toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) can evade the complement system ...

Genital Crohn's disease in pediatrics and genetic associations

open access: yesJPGN Reports, EarlyView.
Abstract Genital edema is a rare presentation of Crohn's disease (CD), also known as metastatic CD (MCD). This may precede, co‐occur with, or follow gastrointestinal symptoms and present a diagnostic challenge. We aimed to characterize the features, clinical courses, pathogenesis, and outcomes of patients with MCD to increase understanding and promote ...
