Clinical risk stratification of paediatric renal transplant recipients using C1q and C3d fixing of de novo donor-specific antibodies [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Introduction: We have previously shown that children who developed de novo donor-specific human leukocyte antigen (HLA) antibodies (DSA) had greater decline in allograft function.

Correlation of Serum Anti-Clq Antibody Levels and Disease Activity in Patients with Systemic Lupus Erythematosus

open access: yesIndonesian Journal of Rheumatology, 2019
Background. Antibody to complement C1q (Anti-C1q Antibody) can be found in Systemic Lupus Erythematosus (SLE) patients. Complement C1q plays a role in the clearance of apoptotic cells and immune complexes.

Causal Link and Shared Biomarkers Between Rheumatoid Arthritis and Idiopathic Pulmonary Fibrosis

open access: yesMed Research, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study investigates the causal relationship between rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF), aiming to identify shared biomarkers between the two conditions. Utilizing bidirectional Mendelian randomization (MR), we assessed causality by analyzing genome‐wide association study (GWAS) data from European cohorts ...

Anti-SARS-Cov-2 S-RBD IgG Formed after BNT162b2 Vaccination Can Bind C1q and Activate Complement

open access: yesJournal of Immunology Research, 2022
Background. The ability of vaccine-induced antibodies to bind C1q could affect pathogen neutralization. In this study, we investigated C1q binding and subsequent complement activation by anti-spike (S) protein receptor-binding domain (RBD) specific ...

Interaction between complement subcomponent C1q and bacterial lipopolysaccharides [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 1989
The heptose-less mutant of Escherichia coli, D31m4, bound complement subcomponent C1q and its collagen-like fragments (C1qCLF) with Ka values of 1.4 x 10(8) and 2.0 x 10(8) M-1 respectively. This binding was suppressed by chemical modification of C1q and C1qCLF using diethyl pyrocarbonate (DEPC).

TREM2 Downregulation Disrupts Microglial Function and Synaptic Pruning Through RA/RARα Signaling: Mechanisms Underlying Autism‐Like Behaviors

open access: yesPediatric Discovery, EarlyView.
Downregulation of TREM2 induces autism‐like behaviors in healthy rats by impairing microglial function and triggering aberrant synaptic pruning. RA/RARα signaling pathway modulates alterations in TREM2 expression. Serum sTREM2 levels correspond to alterations in brain TREM2 expression.

Increase of C1q biosynthesis in brain microglia and macrophages during lentivirus infection in the rhesus macaque is sensitive to antiretroviral treatment with 6-chloro-2′,3′-dideoxyguanosine

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2005
Complement activation in the brain contributes to the pathology of neuroinflammatory and neurodegenerative diseases such as neuro-AIDS. Using semiquantitative in situ hybridization and immunohistochemistry, we observed an early and sustained increase in ...

Functional and Structural Characterization of a Potent C1q Inhibitor Targeting the Classical Pathway of the Complement System

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
The classical pathway of complement is important for protection against pathogens and in maintaining tissue homeostasis, but excessive or aberrant activation is directly linked to numerous pathologies.

The Solution Structures of Two Human IgG1 Antibodies Show Conformational Stability and Accommodate Their C1q and FcγR Ligands. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The human IgG1 antibody subclass shows distinct properties compared with the IgG2, IgG3, and IgG4 subclasses and is the most exploited subclass in therapeutic antibodies. It is the most abundant subclass, has a half-life as long as that of IgG2 and IgG4,
