Role for Complement C5 in Eosinophilic Inflammation of Severe Asthma

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
Complement activation module, particularly C5, is positively associated with eosinophilic inflammation in severe asthma cohorts. Elevated C5 expression correlates with poor lung function improvement and persistent eosinophilic inflammation. Mouse model studies confirm that C5 exacerbates eosinophilic inflammation, highlighting its potential as a ...

International Guideline on the Diagnosis and Management of Pediatric Patients With Hereditary Angioedema

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Hereditary angioedema (HAE) with C1 inhibitor deficiency is a rare disease characterized by unpredictable episodes of tissue swelling (angioedema), which, in most cases, occur first under the age of 18 years, and entail a significant burden of disease not only for the patients but also for their families.

MINI-REVIEW: SYSTEMIC LUPUS ERYTHEMATOSUS AND DEFICIENCIES OF EARLY COMPONENTS OF THE COMPLEMENT CLASSICAL PATHWAY

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2016
The complement system plays an important role in the innate and acquired immune response against pathogens. It consists of more than 30 proteins found in soluble form or attached to cell membranes. Most complement proteins circulate in inactive forms and

Comprehensive Quantification of Oligoasthenozoospermia Induced by Obesity, Reproductive Toxicants, and Their Combination in Rat Models

open access: yesAndrology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Oligoasthenozoospermia is a leading cause of male infertility and has been increasingly associated with the global surge in obesity and exposure to reproductive toxicants. Despite extensive research on each factor individually, their combined pathological effects remain poorly understood.

Patterns of C1-Inhibitor/Plasma Serine Protease Complexes in Healthy Humans and in Hereditary Angioedema Patients

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2020
C1-inhibitor (C1-INH) is an important regulator of the complement, coagulation, fibrinolytic and contact systems. The quantity of protease/C1-INH complexes in the blood is proportional to the level of the in vivo activation of these four cascade-like ...

Neoadjuvant Therapy‐Induced Remodeling in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma: Multimodal Spatial Analysis and Prognosis

open access: yesCancer Science, EarlyView.
Using integrated spatial pathomics and transcriptomics, we show that neoadjuvant therapy (NAT) in pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) induces substantial tumor microenvironment remodeling that is not captured by tumor regression grading (TRG) alone.
