Frequency of paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria in patients attended in Belém, Pará, Brazil
BACKGROUND: Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria is a hematological disease with complex physiopathology. It is genetically characterized by a somatic mutation in the PIG-A gene (phosphatidylinositol glycan anchor biosynthesis, class A), in which the best

Antibodies against complement-regulatory proteins on platelets in immune thrombocytopenia
In immune thrombocytopenia (ITP), antibodies reacting with platelet membrane glycoproteins (GP) mediate premature platelet cleavage, resulting in thrombocytopenia and therefore a risk of bleeding.

Early and extensive CD55 loss from red blood cells supports a causal role in malarial anaemia
Background Levels of complement regulatory proteins (CrP) on the surface of red blood cells (RBC) decrease during severe malarial anaemia and as part of cell ageing process.

Expression of the membrane complement regulatory proteins (CD55 and CD59) in human thymus.
CD59 is one of the key molecules involved in cell protection against autologus complement. The fact that complement regulatory proteins are able to prevent hyperacute rejection of organs in pig to primate model, raises the question of possible complement
