Effect of DAF on interaction of C3a and C3aR in lungs of rats after BOP exposure.

open access: yes, 2018
Representative micro-photos of C3a-C3aR interaction in lungs of frozen sections stained with anti-C3a and anti-C3aR antibodies. Original magnification = 400×, and scale bar = 100μm. n = 8 for all the groups except 48 h experimental samples (n = 5).

The Complement C3a–C3aR Axis Promotes Development of Thoracic Aortic Dissection via Regulation of MMP2 Expression

open access: yes, 2018
Thoracic aortic dissection (TAD), once ruptured, is devastating to patients, and no effective pharmaceutical therapy is available. Anaphylatoxins released by complement activation are involved in a variety of diseases. However, the role of the complement

Knockdown of β-arrestin-2, but not β-arrestin-1, inhibits agonist-induced C3aR internalization.

open access: yes, 2013
(A) shRNA control HMC-1 cells (B) β-arrestin-1 KD and (C) β-arrestin-2 KD cells were exposed to buffer (−C3a) or C3a (100 nM) for 5 min. Cells were washed with ice-cold FACS buffer, incubated with a mouse anti-C3aR antibody or an isotype control antibody

Einfluss der Anaphylatoxinrezeptoren C3aR und C5aR2 auf Bluthochdruck und hypertensive Endorganschäden

open access: yes, 2022
Bluthochdruck und die daraus resultierenden Endorganschäden stellen, epidemiologisch gesehen, das höchste Gesundheitsrisiko für die Bevölkerung dar (GBD 2016, 2017; Mills et al., 2020).

Complement C3/C3aR signaling pathway inhibition ameliorates retinal damage in experimental retinal vein occlusion

open access: yes
PURPOSE: Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is a common retinal vascular disease that severely threatens visual function. This study aims to elucidate the role of the complement C3/C3aR signaling pathway in a laser-induced RVO mouse model and to explore its ...

Macroscopic findings in C3ar-/- vs. WT BALB/c and B6 mice in DSS colitis.

open access: yes, 2013
To account for individual variations in body size, colon length and mLN weight were calculated relative to the body weight for each mouse. A, Colon shortening. To compare DSS-treated WT and C3ar-/- mice, the mean colon length from the H2O-treated control

Regulation of mRNA expression in C3ar-/- vs. WT BALB/c and B6 mice in DSS colitis.

open access: yes, 2013
RNA was isolated from colon tissue homogenates, and mRNA levels were measured by quantitative real time PCR and normalized to the expression of the housekeeping gene Hprt-1.

Characterizing the Role of the Complement Receptor C3aR in Regulating Inflammatory Responses and Mitochondrial Function in Activated Macrophages

open access: yes
The complement system is an integral part of the innate immune response, and consists of a series of proteins that are mostly (although not exclusively) synthesized in the liver that circulate in the plasma as inactive precursors, as well as receptors on

Functional Relevance of the Anaphylatoxin Receptor C3aR for Platelet Function and Arterial Thrombus Formation Marks an Intersection Point Between Innate Immunity and Thrombosis

open access: yes, 2018
Background: Platelets have distinct roles in the vascular system in that they are the major mediator of thrombosis, critical for restoration of tissue integrity, and players in vascular inflammatory conditions.

Complement C3aR loss drives colorectal cancer by modulating gut microbiota

open access: yes, 2020
Several lines of evidence suggest that inflammation plays a pivotal role in the development and progression of colorectal cancer (CRC) and can be unleashed by the loss of innate immunosurveillance. The complement system is a central component of immunity
