Complement inhibition promotes endogenous neurogenesis and sustained anti-inflammatory neuroprotection following reperfused stroke. [PDF]
The restoration of blood-flow following cerebral ischemia incites a series of deleterious cascades that exacerbate neuronal injury. Pharmacologic inhibition of the C3a-receptor ameliorates cerebral injury by attenuating post-ischemic inflammation. Recent

Potent thiophene antagonists of human complement C3a receptor with anti-inflammatory activity [PDF]
Structure-activity relationships for a series of small-molecule thiophenes resulted in potent and selective antagonism of human Complement C3a receptor. The compounds are about 100-fold more potent than the most reported antagonist SB290157.

Synergistic Effects of Tricalcium Aluminate and Gypsum on Performance of Oil Well Cement Slurries
To better control the quality of oil well cement, class G cement clinkers with different contents of tricalcium aluminate (C3A) were mixed with different kinds of gypsums, and study was conducted on the synergistic effects of C3A and gypsum on the ...

Human monocyte-derived dendritic cells are chemoattracted to C3a after up-regulation of the C3a receptor with interferons [PDF]
The anaphylatoxin C3a is an important inflammatory mediator in the innate and adaptive immune systems. Recent reports in various animal models have fostered the role of C3a in mediating allergic reactions such as pulmonary allergies.

Vibrational Signals for Mating Disruption Do Not Negatively Affect Grapevine Growth and Production
Vibrational mating disruption (VMD) is a promising strategy to control Scaphoideus titanus populations in vineyards, and it is based on the prolonged application of a species-specific disturbance vibrational signal (DVS) on grapevines.

Resolving Heterogeneity of Targeted Lipid Nanoparticles Through Solution‐Based Biophysical Analyses
AF4‐UV‐DLS‐MALS‐SAXS resolves previously inaccessible targeted lipid nanoparticle (tLNP) subpopulations that differ in size, shape, and composition. Correlation of subpopulation‐resolved biophysical properties with in vivo RNA delivery reveals that targeted placental transfection is associated with distinct tLNP subpopulations rather than ensemble ...

FGL2‐HDAC11 Drives Immunothrombosis via NETs‐Mediated Endothelial Capillarization in MASLD Fibrosis
ABSTRACT Metabolic dysfunction–associated steatotic liver disease (MASLD) is frequently accompanied by hepatic fibrosis and systemic cardiovascular complications; however, the mechanistic interplay between coagulation abnormalities and disease progression remains poorly defined.

ELISA of complement C3a in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid [PDF]
Activated complement factors within the lung may induce several local biological effects. In order to investigate local complement activation we have developed non-competitive two-site ELISAs of C3a and total C3 in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF ...

The Human Mast Cell Line HMC‐1 Binds and Responds to C3a but not C3a(desArg) [PDF]
Controversial results have been published in the past regarding the functional reactivity of different cell types to the anaphylatoxin C3a and its degradation product C3a(desArg). To understand better the effects of C3a and C3a(desArg) on human mast cells, the authors performed binding experiments and calcium mobilization studies on the human mast cell
