Paths reunited: initiation of the classical and lectin pathways of complement activation [PDF]
Understanding the structural organisation and mode of action of the initiating complex of the classical pathway of complement activation (C1) has been a central goal in complement biology since its isolation almost 50 years ago.

Cytokine and Complement Response in the Glaucomatous βB1-CTGF Mouse Model
Glaucoma is a complex neurodegenerative disease leading to a loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and optic nerve axons. An activation of the complement system seems to contribute to cell loss in this disease.

Direct versus Delayed pathways in Strong-Field Non-Sequential Double Ionization [PDF]
We report full-dimensionality quantum and classical calculations for double ionization of laser-driven helium at 390 nm. Good qualitative agreement is observed.

The immunopathological functions associated with human C1q are still growing in terms of novelty, diversity, and pathologic relevance. It is, therefore, not surprising that C1q is being recognized as an important molecular bridge between innate and ...

Role of complement activation in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated glomerulonephritis
Anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) is an autoimmune disease characterized by necrotizing inflammation of small or medium vessels, causing ANCA associated glomerulonephritis (AAGN).

Novel Evasion Mechanisms of the Classical Complement Pathway [PDF]
Abstract Complement is a network of soluble and cell surface-associated proteins that gives rise to a self-amplifying, yet tightly regulated system with fundamental roles in immune surveillance and clearance. Complement becomes activated on the surface of nonself cells by one of three initiating mechanisms known as the classical, lectin,

Dual pathway spindle assembly increases both the speed and the fidelity of mitosis [PDF]
Roughly half of all animal somatic cell spindles assemble by the classical prophase pathway, in which the centrosomes separate ahead of nuclear envelope breakdown (NEBD).

Multiple-Organ Complement Deposition on Vascular Endothelium in COVID-19 Patients
Increased levels of circulating complement activation products have been reported in COVID-19 patients, but only limited information is available on complement involvement at the tissue level.
