Functions of C5a receptors [PDF]
The split product of the complement protein, C5, is C5a and is an extremely potent pro-inflammatory peptide that interacts with two C5a receptors, C5aR and C5L2, present on surfaces of phagocytes as well as other cell types. The former is a well-established receptor that initiates G-protein-coupled signaling via mitogen-activated protein kinase ...

Antivirals with broad coronavirus activity are important for treating high-risk individuals exposed to the constantly evolving SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOCs) as well as emerging drug-resistant variants. We developed and characterized a novel class

The Role of Formylpeptide Receptors, C5a Receptors, and Cytosolic-Free Calcium in Neutrophil Priming [PDF]
Polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNL) exposed to chemoattractants or cytokines change their functional capacity. The effect of endotoxin-activated serum as a priming agent on human PMNL was tested.

Complement effectors, C5a and C3a, in cystic fibrosis lung fluid correlate with disease severity. [PDF]
In cystic fibrosis (CF), lung damage is mediated by a cycle of obstruction, infection, inflammation and tissue destruction. The complement system is a major mediator of inflammation for many diseases with the effectors C5a and C3a often playing important

Determination of C5a-specific antibody levels and C5a neutralization.
Anti-C5a antibody levels (A) in the sera collected from mice on day 35 immunized for CIA. As described in Fig. 1B, (BALB/c x B10.Q) F1 male mice (8 weeks old) received vaccination subcutaneously of 100 µg MBP-C5a or PBS emulsified in CFA at day −21 and ...

Leukocyte C5a receptor modulation during hemodialysis [PDF]
Leukocyte C5a receptor modulation during hemodialysis. Exposure of blood to hemodialysis (HD) membranes results in the activation of the complement system.

Human neutrophils exist as two epigenetically imprinted subtypes defined by stable CD177 expression or absence — a ratio that persists across time, circadian rhythms, and inflammation. CD177− neutrophils display a distinct molecular landscape enriched in arginase 1 and lipid metabolism markers, accumulate in head‐and‐neck tumors, and associate with ...
