Regulation of complement-dependent cytotoxicity by TGF-β-induced epithelial-mesenchymal transition. [PDF]

open access: yesOncogene, 2016
The process of epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT), in addition to being an initiating event for tumor metastasis, is implicated in conferring several clinically relevant properties to disseminating cancer cells. These include stem cell-like properties, resistance to targeted therapies and ability to evade immune surveillance.

Complement-dependent cytotoxicity of anti-human osteogenic sarcoma monoclonal antibodies [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Cancer, 1982
Two mouse monoclonal antibodies against the human osteogenic sarcoma 791T were examined for their capacity to exert complement-dependent cytotoxicity against a panel of human tumour cell lines. Cytotoxicity was most evident against the immunizing tumour 791T although significant reactivity was directed against other osteogenic sarcomas.

The Dual Role of a Polyvalent IgM/IgA-Enriched Immunoglobulin Preparation in Activating and Inhibiting the Complement System

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Activation of the complement system is important for efficient clearance of a wide variety of pathogens via opsonophagocytosis, or by direct lysis via complement-dependent cytotoxicity (CDC).

Neuron-derived IgG Protects Neurons from Complement-dependent Cytotoxicity [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Histochemistry & Cytochemistry, 2013
Passive immunity of the nervous system has traditionally been thought to be predominantly due to the blood-brain barrier. This concept must now be revisited based on the existence of neuron-derived IgG. The conventional concept is that IgG is produced solely by mature B lymphocytes, but it has now been found to be synthesized by murine and human ...

Mechanisms of Resistance to Anti-CD38 Daratumumab in Multiple Myeloma

open access: yesCells, 2020
Daratumumab (Dara) is the first-in-class human-specific anti-CD38 mAb approved for the treatment of multiple myeloma (MM). Although recent data have demonstrated very promising results in clinical practice and trials, some patients do not achieve a ...

Diversity and complexity in neural organoids

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Neural organoid research aims to expand genetic diversity on one side and increase tissue complexity on the other. Chimeroids integrate multiple donor genomes within single organoids. Self‐organising multi‐identity organoids, exogenous cell seeding, or enforced assembly of region‐specific organoids contribute to tissue complexity.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

A Novel Platform for the Potentiation of Therapeutic Antibodies Based on Antigen-Dependent Formation of IgG Hexamers at the Cell Surface.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2016
IgG antibodies can organize into ordered hexamers on cell surfaces after binding their antigen. These hexamers bind the first component of complement C1 inducing complement-dependent target cell killing.

Complement C5b-9 and Cancer: Mechanisms of Cell Damage, Cancer Counteractions, and Approaches for Intervention

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2019
The interactions of cancer cells with components of the complement system are highly complex, leading to an outcome that is either favorable or detrimental to cancer cells. Currently, we perceive only the “tip of the iceberg” of these interactions.

How Does Complement Affect Hematological Malignancies: From Basic Mechanisms to Clinical Application

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
Complement, as a central immune surveillance system, can be activated within seconds upon stimulation, thereby displaying multiple immune effector functions.
