Calcitriol modulates the CD46 pathway in T cells. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
The complement regulator CD46 is a costimulatory molecule for human T cells that induces a regulatory Tr1 phenotype, characterized by large amounts of IL-10 secretion.

Structure of Bovine CD46 Ectodomain

open access: yesViruses, 2023
CD46, or membrane cofactor protein, is a type-one transmembrane protein from the complement regulatory protein family. Alongside its role in complement activation, CD46 is involved in many other processes, from T-cell activation to reproduction.

CD46 Genetic Variability and HIV-1 Infection Susceptibility [PDF]

open access: yesCells, 2021
CD46 is the main receptor for complement protein C3 and plays an important role in adaptive immune responses. CD46 genetic variants are associated with susceptibility to several infectious and autoimmune diseases.

Complement regulator CD46: genetic variants and disease associations [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Genomics, 2015
Membrane cofactor protein (MCP; CD46) is an ubiquitously expressed complement regulatory protein that protects host cells from injury by complement. This type-I membrane glycoprotein serves as a cofactor for the serine protease factor I to mediate inactivation of C3b and C4b deposited on host cells. More than 60 disease-associated mutations in MCP have

A novel role for CD46 in wound repair [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2011
The intestinal epithelium not only provides a vital physical barrier between the host and environment but is also required for uptake of nutrients and the induction of tolerance against commensals.

Molecular Studies and an ex vivo Complement Assay on Endothelium Highlight the Genetic Complexity of Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome: The Case of a Pedigree With a Null CD46 Variant

open access: goldFrontiers in Medicine, 2020
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is an ultra-rare disease characterized by microangiopathic hemolysis, thrombocytopenia, and renal impairment and is associated with dysregulation of the alternative complement pathway on the microvascular ...

Measles virus glycoprotein-based lentiviral targeting vectors that avoid neutralizing antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Lentiviral vectors (LVs) are potent gene transfer vehicles frequently applied in research and recently also in clinical trials. Retargeting LV entry to cell types of interest is a key issue to improve gene transfer safety and efficacy.

Inhibition of cd46 receptor by rnai enhances cell resistance to bvdv infection [PDF]

open access: yesKafkas Universitesi Veteriner Fakültesi Dergisi, 2020
This study aimed to investigate the inhibition effect of CD46 on the replication of bovine viral diarrhea viruses (BVDV). BVDV causes bovine viral diarrheal mucosal disease, and prevention of BVDV infection is very important for livestock production ...
