Complement peptide receptors in GtoPdb v.2021.3 [PDF]
Complement peptide receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR subcommittee on Complement peptide receptors [107]) are activated by the endogenous ~75 amino-acid anaphylatoxin polypeptides C3a and C5a, generated upon stimulation of the complement ...

A statistical-thermodynamic analysis of stably ordered substitutional structures in graphene [PDF]
Ordered distributions of carbon and substitutional dopant (A) atoms over the sites of a graphene lattice and problem of their stability are considered theoretically. The ranges of values of interatomic-interaction parameters providing the low-temperature stability of the graphene-based C7A, C3A, and CA superstructures are determined within the ...

Complement activation and its prognostic role in post-cardiac arrest patients [PDF]
Cardiac arrest causes generalized ischemia/hypoxia, and subsequent resuscitation inflicts reperfusion injury, the pathology of which is not fully understood.

Astrocyte Responses to Complement Peptide C3a are Highly Context-Dependent
AbstractAstrocytes perform a range of homeostatic and regulatory tasks that are critical for normal functioning of the central nervous system. In response to an injury or disease, astrocytes undergo a pronounced transformation into a reactive state that involves changes in the expression of many genes and dramatically changes astrocyte morphology and ...

To study the molecular interplay between TLRs and complement representing ancient danger-sensing mechanisms, we examined the regulation of the C3a/anaphylatoxin C3a receptor (C3aR) axis in normal human epidermal keratinocytes (NHEKs) by treatment with ...

An Anti-C1s Monoclonal, TNT003, Inhibits Complement Activation Induced by Antibodies Against HLA. [PDF]
Antibody-mediated rejection (AMR) of solid organ transplants (SOT) is characterized by damage triggered by donor-specific antibodies (DSA) binding donor Class I and II HLA (HLA-I and HLA-II) expressed on endothelial cells.

Commensurability classes of 2-bridge knot complements [PDF]
We show that a hyperbolic 2-bridge knot complement is the unique knot complement in its commensurability class. We also discuss constructions of commensurable hyperbolic knot complements and put forth a conjecture on the number of hyperbolic knot complements in a commensurability class.

Potential Mechanisms Underlying TGF-β-mediated Complement Activation in Lung Fibrosis [PDF]
While our previous studies suggest that limiting bleomycin-induced complement activation suppresses TGF-β signaling, the specific hierarchical interactions between TGF-β and complement in lung fibrosis are unclear.

Cancer epithelia-derived mitochondrial DNA is a targetable initiator of a paracrine signaling loop that confers taxane resistance. [PDF]
Stromal-epithelial interactions dictate cancer progression and therapeutic response. Prostate cancer (PCa) cells were identified to secrete greater concentration of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) compared to noncancer epithelia.
