C1q and phagocytosis: the perfect complement to a good meal [PDF]

open access: bronzeJournal of Leukocyte Biology, 2012
Abstract Review on the role for C1q in enhancement of phagocytosis, specifically focusing on C1q-mediated clearance of apoptotic cells. Complement component C1q is a member of a family of soluble proteins called defense collagens, which are important in host defense and apoptotic cell clearance.

The role of complement component C1q in angiogenesis

open access: yesExploration of Immunology, 2023
The complement component C1q plays a role as a pro-angiogenic factor in different contexts, acting in a complement-independent way. For example, this molecule is able to foster the remodeling of the spiral arteries for a physiological pregnancy and to promote the wound healing process.

Complement Component C1q and Anti‐C1q Antibodies in Theory and in Clinical Practice [PDF]

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Immunology, 2008
AbstractThe complement system is a major part of the innate immunity. The first component of the classical pathway of complement activation, C1q, plays a crucial role in the clearance of immune complexes and apoptotic bodies from the organism. Autoantibodies against C1q (anti‐C1q) have been found in a number of autoimmune and infectious diseases.

TGF-β Signaling Regulates Neuronal C1q Expression and Developmental Synaptic Refinement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Immune molecules, including complement proteins C1q and C3, have emerged as critical mediators of synaptic refinement and plasticity. Complement localizes to synapses and refines the developing visual system via C3-dependent microglial phagocytosis of ...
