CD93—An emerging vascular target in cancer therapy

British Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Abstract CD93 is a single‐pass transmembrane glycoprotein that belongs to the C‐type lectin domain group XIV family of proteins. Although it is known to be expressed in other cell types, namely, in some subsets of immune cells, CD93 is primarily expressed on endothelial cells, where it acts as a crucial regulator of angiogenesis.

Crystal structure of Trichinella spiralis calreticulin and the structural basis of its complement evasion mechanism involving C1q

Frontiers in Immunology
Helminths produce calreticulin (CRT) to immunomodulate the host immune system as a survival strategy. However, the structure of helminth-derived CRT and the structural basis of the immune evasion process remains unclarified. Previous study found that the

Efficacy Assessment of Montanide GEL 02 PR and Liposome‐Based Encapsulation as Adjuvants for an FrpA Subunit Vaccine Against Photobacteriosis in Solea senegalensis

Journal of Fish Diseases, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Photobacteriosis is a major threat to marine aquaculture, and the siderophore transporter FrpA represents a promising target for effective subunit vaccine development. In this study, we evaluated Montanide GEL 02 PR and phosphatidylcholine‐based liposomes as aqueous and safer alternatives to Freund's adjuvant for an FrpA‐based subunit vaccine ...

Placental malperfusion and angiogenesis‐related proteins are associated with small‐for‐gestational‐age in systemic lupus erythematosus

Journal of Internal Medicine, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Although systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) pregnancy frequently results in small for gestational age (SGA) infants, the understanding of underlying mechanisms is limited. We aimed to identify specific histological patterns of placental injury in SGA in SLE and to explore whether an altered balance of angiogenesis‐related proteins ...

Anti-C1q antibodies as a follow-up marker in SLE patients.

PLoS ONE, 2015
In cross-sectional studies autoantibodies against complement C1q (anti-C1q) were found to be highly associated with active lupus nephritis. The aim of this retrospective study was to determine the value of anti-C1q as follow-up marker of disease activity

Periodontitis and Rheumatoid Arthritis—Mechanistic Evidence

Journal of Periodontal Research, EarlyView.
Periodontitis and rheumatoid arthritis are linked via the two‐hit model whereby early periodontal inflammation can lead to autoantibody production capable of interacting with inflamed synovial tissues. Subsequent systemic inflammation can exacerbate the periodontal inflammatory response and bacterial dysbiosis leading to further autoantibody production

Complement factors C1q, C3 and C5 in brain and serum of mice with cerebral malaria

Malaria Journal, 2008
Background The patho-mechanisms leading to brain damage due to cerebral malaria (CM) are yet not fully understood. Immune-mediated and ischaemic mechanisms have been implicated.

Serum Electrolyte Changes in Foals Receiving Rhodococcus equi–Specific Hyperimmune Plasma

Journal of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Rhodococcus equi–specific hyperimmune plasma (Re‐HIP) is routinely administered to neonatal foals to help prevent rhodococcal pneumonia. In addition to pathogen‐specific immunoglobulins, frozen plasma products (FPPs) contain electrolytes that may exceed concentrations found in neonatal foal plasma.

Young Adult Microglial Deletion of C1q Reduces Engulfment of Synapses and Partially Mitigates Cognitive Impairment in an Aggressive Alzheimer's Disease Mouse Model

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Young adult deletion of microglial C1q reduced engulfment of Vglut1+ synapses and mitigated spatial cognitive deficits at 10 months of age in the amyloidopathy Arctic mouse model of AD. Neither fibrillar amyloid plaques nor soluble or insoluble Aβ levels in the hippocampus were affected by young adult microglial loss of C1q despite reduced phagocytosis

A Microglia–Astrocyte Signaling Axis Regulates Astrocyte Piezo1 Expression and Inflammatory Responses

Glia, Volume 74, Issue 9, September 2026.
Activated microglia‐derived inflammatory signals drive astrocytic Piezo1 expression in both in vitro and in vivo models. Piezo1 upregulation modulates astrocytic Ca2+ dynamics and inflammatory gene expression, thereby limiting microglial activation. ABSTRACT Structural tissue alterations in numerous brain disorders can initiate mechanosensory signaling
