The role of complement in synaptic degeneration

open access: yes, 2012
Synapse loss is an early event of many neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer?s disease and Parkinson?s disease. The causes and mechanisms that underpin synapse dysfunction and degeneration are poorly understood.

Adaptive Immunity in Marsupials

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Zoology Part A: Ecological and Integrative Physiology, EarlyView.
Comparison of the marsupial and eutherian adaptive immune systems. ABSTRACT Marsupials diverged from eutherian mammals 125–160 million years ago. Although evolutionarily distinct, both groups of mammals can produce complex adaptive immune responses to antigens with several key differences.

Development of C1q affinity chromatography for the study of C1q-IgG interactions

open access: yes, 2023
The classical complement system represents a central effector mechanism of Abs initiated by the binding of C1q to target bound IgG. Human C1q contains six heterotrimeric globular head groups that mediate IgG interaction, resulting in an avidity-driven ...

Mass Spectrometry‐Based Extracellular Vesicle Proteomics for Biomarker Discovery

open access: yesMass Spectrometry Reviews, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicle (EV) proteomics has emerged as a powerful platform for decoding intercellular communication and advancing biomarker discovery across human diseases. EVs carry proteins that reflect their cells of origin, offering a minimally invasive window into physiological and pathological processes.

Recent Advances in Exosome‐Based Nanodelivery Systems for Traumatic Brain Injury Treatment

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
An overview of functional modification, therapeutic effects, molecular composition, and delivery strategies for exosomes. ABSTRACT Traumatic brain injury (TBI) is a highly heterogeneous neurological condition with extremely high rates of mortality and disability.

Microglia Ablation and Downstream Effects in the Cerebrospinal Fluid Proteome

open access: yesPROTEOMICS, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disease‐related activation of glial cells leads to changes in the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) proteome. However, assigning such protein changes to their cellular origins is often difficult. Here, we used microglia (and macrophage) depletion in mice to identify CSF proteins of microglial origin.

RAGE binds C1q and enhances C1q-mediated phagocytosis

open access: yes, 2012
► RAGE is a newly identified, native C1q globular domain receptor. ► A receptor complex of RAGE and Mac-1 could be formed with enhanced affinity for C1q. ► C1q-induced cell adhesion and phagocytosis was inhibited by RAGE or Mac-1 antibodies.

Intersection of systemic lupus erythematosus and autoimmune thyroid disease: Shared pathophysiology, epidemiology, diagnosis, and management

open access: yesRheumatology &Autoimmunity, EarlyView.
A proposed mechanistic framework of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and autoimmune thyroid disease (AITD) pathogenesis. In Stage 1, genetically susceptible individuals harbor risk variants within major histocompatibility complex (HLA) and non‐HLA loci that impair central and peripheral immune tolerance mechanisms within the thymic and peripheral ...

Identification of a C1q family member associated with cortical granules and follicular cell apoptosis in Carassius auratus gibelio

open access: yes, 2008
C1q family proteins with C1q domain have been reported in vertebrates, but their biological roles are currently unknown. In this study, a C1q-like factor, designated Carassius auratus gibelio ovary-specific C1q-like factor (CagOC1q-like), was identified ...
