Six monoclonal antibodies to the CD59 antigen [PDF]
Abstract CD59 defines an N -glycosylated glycoprotein expressed on various hemopoietic cells. It is anchored to the cell membrane by a glycosylphosphatidylinositol linkage and restricts the action of homologous complement.

Association of Blood Group Antigen CD59 with Disease [PDF]
In 2014, the membrane-bound protein CD59 became a blood group antigen. CD59 has been known for decades as an inhibitor of the complement system, located on erythrocytes and on many other cell types. In paroxysmal nocturnal haemoglobinuria (PNH), a stem cell clone with acquired deficiency to express GPI-anchored molecules, including the complement ...

Specific acquisition of functional CD59 but not CD46 or CD55 by hepatitis C virus.
Viruses of different families encode for regulators of the complement system (RCAs) or acquire such RCAs from the host to get protection against complement-mediated lysis (CML). As hepatitis C virus (HCV) shares no genetic similarity to any known RCA and

Imaging mass cytometry shows lupus panniculitis lesions are dominated by cytotoxic and skin‐homing T cells with abundant macrophages and B‐cell aggregates. Spatial neighborhood analysis reveals organized leukocyte architecture, including B‐cell proximity to naïve T cells and M1 macrophages to cytotoxic T cells.

The immunological landscape of the area postrema in neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders
Aquaporin‐4 antibody‐positive neuromyelitis spectrum disorder is characterized by large tissue destructive lesions in medulla, spinal cord, and optic nerves, with only partial recovery from clinical symptoms, and by lesions with very little tissue destruction and mostly complete recovery from clinical symptoms, as seen in the area postrema ...
