Humoral complementomics – exploration of noninvasive complement biomarkers as predictors of renal cancer progression

open access: yesOncoImmunology
Despite the progress of anti-cancer treatment, the prognosis of many patients with solid tumors is still dismal. Reliable noninvasive biomarkers are needed to predict patient survival and therapy response.

Self-Damage Caused by Dysregulation of the Complement Alternative Pathway: Relevance of the Factor H Protein Family

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
The alternative pathway is a continuously active surveillance arm of the complement system, and it can also enhance complement activation initiated by the classical and the lectin pathways.

Late Onset Thrombotic Microangiopathy in Kidney Transplants; Poor Outcome Despite Eculizumab Treatment

open access: yesTransplant International
Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a rare cause of end stage kidney disease (ESKD) associated with a high rate of recurrence in kidney transplants causing a post-transplant thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA).

Epoxygenase inactivation exacerbates diet and aging-associated metabolic dysfunction resulting from impaired adipogenesis

open access: yesMolecular Metabolism, 2018
Objective: When molecular drivers of healthy adipogenesis are perturbed, this can cause hepatic steatosis. The role of arachidonic acid (AA) and its downstream enzymatic cascades, such as cyclooxygenase, in adipogenesis is well established.

Increased Autoreactivity of the Complement-Activating Molecule Mannan-Binding Lectin in a Type 1 Diabetes Model

open access: yesJournal of Diabetes Research, 2016
Background. Diabetic kidney disease is the leading cause of end-stage renal failure despite intensive treatment of modifiable risk factors. Identification of new drug targets is therefore of paramount importance.
