Association of CD46 Cellular Receptor Gene SNP in Measles Vaccine Response
Background: Measles is a highly contagious viral disease. It remains an important cause of death among young children globally, despite the availability of a safe and effective vaccine.

BackgroundAdequate termination of an immune response is as important as the induction of an appropriate response. CD46, a regulator of complement activity, promotes T cell activation and differentiation towards a regulatory Tr1 phenotype.

Decoding the Factor H‐Related Proteins: Gatekeepers of Complement Dysregulation in AMD
This review will explore the role of the factor H‐related (FHR) proteins in age‐related macular degeneration (AMD), their accumulation in the outer blood/retinal barrier, and how they may contribute to barrier dysfunction and inflammation. ABSTRACT Age‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is the third most common form of blindness in the Western world ...

We retrospectively evaluated the impact of C5 complement inhibition on immune cell profiles and recovery in 27 PNH patients; both CD4+ and CD8+ T cells exhibited partial recovery, while B cell counts increased but remained below normal levels. In contrast, Treg cells were significantly reduced in PNH patients and showed no notable change post‐treatment.

Human CD46 aberrant splicing in transgenic mice
RNA analysis of mice transgenic for human CD46 reveals almost undetectable levels of the expected transcript and the accumulation of a 900 nt shorter species. cDNA cloning and sequence analysis of this variant demonstrate an aberrant splicing of the transgene RNA.

Adenovirus interactions with CD46 on transgenic mouse erythrocytes
Hemagglutination is an established method but has not been used previously to determine the efficacy of virus binding to a specific cellular receptor. Here we have utilized CD46-expressing erythrocytes from a transgenic mouse to establish whether and to what extent the species B adenoviruses (Ads) as well as Ad37 and Ad49 of species D can interact with

We have developed a technology that depletes the complement regulatory protein (CRP) CD46 from the cell surface, and thereby sensitizes tumor cells to complement-dependent cytotoxicity triggered by therapeutic monoclonal antibodies (mAbs). This technology is based on a small recombinant protein, Ad35K++, which induces the internalization and subsequent

CD46 as a Measles Receptor: Form Follows Function
Measles is the seventh leading cause of childhood mortality worldwide. Currently 30–40 million measles infections occur each year, leading to 1–2 million deaths. In addition to causing an acute respiratory infection, measles is associated with a profound, transient suppression of cell-mediated immunity.
