Is it all that bad when living with an intracellular protozoan? The role of Trypanosoma cruzi calreticulin in angiogenesis and tumor growth

open access: yesFrontiers in Oncology, 2015
The immune system protects against disease, but may aberrantly silence immunity against altered self, with consequent development of malignancies. Among the components of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), important in immunity, is calreticulin (CRT) that ...

SLE: Novel Postulates for Therapeutic Options

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Genetic deficiency in C1q is a strong susceptibility factor for systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). There are two major hypotheses that potentially explain the role of C1q in SLE.

Complement complex 1 subunit q‐mediated hepatic stellate cell activation with connective tissue growth factor elevation is a prognostic factor for survival in rat and human chronic liver diseases

open access: yesHepatology Communications, 2022
Complement complex 1 subunit q (C1q) has multiple functions, including cell migration, in addition to its traditional complement‐activating effect. Research shows C1q is a ligand for frizzled receptors (FZDs).

The human C1q globular domain: Structure and recognition of non immune self ligands

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
C1q, the ligand binding unit of the C1 complex of complement, is a pattern recognition molecule with the unique ability to sense an amazing variety of targets, including a number of altered structures from self, such as apoptotic cells.

The collagen structure of C1q induces wound healing by engaging discoidin domain receptor 2

open access: yesMolecular Medicine, 2021
Background C1q has been reported to reveal complement-independent roles in immune and non-immune cells. C1q binds to its specific receptors to regulate distinct functions that rely on the environment and cell types.

Extensive Tandem Duplication Events Drive the Expansion of the C1q-Domain-Containing Gene Family in Bivalves

open access: yesMarine Drugs, 2019
C1q-domain-containing (C1qDC) proteins are rapidly emerging as key players in the innate immune response of bivalve mollusks. Growing experimental evidence suggests that these highly abundant secretory proteins are involved in the recognition of microbe ...

Analysis of the interaction between globular head modules of human C1q and its candidate receptor gC1qR

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
The heterotrimeric globular head (gC1q) domain of human C1q is made up of the C-terminal ends of the three individual chains, ghA, ghB and ghC. The receptor for the gC1q domain is a multi-functional pattern recognition protein, gC1qR. Since understanding

Complement C1q Enhances Primary Hemostasis [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The cross-talk between the inflammatory complement system and hemostasis is becoming increasingly recognized. The interaction between complement C1q, initiation molecule of the classical pathway, and von Willebrand factor (vWF), initiator molecule of primary hemostasis, has been shown to induce platelet rolling and adhesion in vitro.

Effective dynamics of double solitons for perturbed mKdV [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We show that an interacting double soliton solution to the perturbed mKdV equation is close in $H^2$ to a double soliton following an effective dynamics obtained as Hamilton's equations for the restriction of the mKdV Hamiltonian to the submanifold of ...
