New developments in C5a receptor signaling
Complement activation usually results in the formation of complement fragment 5a (C5a) that interacts with its two receptors, C5aR and C5L2. These receptors belong to the rhodopsin family of G protein-coupled seven transmembrane-containing receptors. C5aR and C5L2 are expressed on/in a wide variety of cells and tissues.

Use of a cAMP BRET Sensor to Characterize a Novel Regulation of cAMP by the Sphingosine 1-Phosphate/G13 Pathway [PDF]
Regulation of intracellular cyclic adenosine 3',5'-monophosphate (cAMP) is integral in mediating cell growth, cell differentiation, and immune responses in hematopoietic cells. To facilitate studies of cAMP regulation we developed a BRET (bioluminescence

Amniotic fluid embolism pathophysiology suggests the new diagnostic armamentarium: β-tryptase and complement fractions C3-C4 are the indispensable working tools [PDF]
Amniotic fluid embolism (AFE) is an uncommon obstetric condition involving pregnant women during labor or in the initial stages after delivery. Its incidence is estimated to be around 5.5 cases per 100,000 deliveries.

C5a receptor and thymocyte apoptosis in sepsis [PDF]
ABSTRACT In sepsis, apoptosis occurs in many different organs. The mediators responsible for induction of apoptosis are not clearly known, although there are some suggestions that C5a and the C5a receptor (C5aR) might be directly linked to apoptosis.

The Ribosomal Protein S19 Suppresses Antitumor Immune Responses via the Complement C5a Receptor 1
Relatively little is known about factors that initiate immunosuppression in tumors and act at the interface between tumor cells and host cells. In this article, we report novel immunosuppressive properties of the ribosomal protein S19 (RPS19), which is ...

Complement C5a Implication in Axonal Growth After Injury
Complement C5a protein has been shown to play a major role in tissue regeneration through interaction with its receptor (C5aR) on target cells. Expression of this receptor has been reported in the nervous system which, upon injury, has no treatment to ...

Neuroinflammation, Mast Cells, and Glia: Dangerous Liaisons [PDF]
The perspective of neuroinflammation as an epiphenomenon following neuron damage is being replaced by the awareness of glia and their importance in neural functions and disorders.
