Multiple duplications of complement C4 gene correlate with H-2-controlled testosterone-independent expression of its sex-limited isoform, C4-Slp.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1985
Mouse liver cDNA clones related to the C4 and C4-Slp isoforms of the fourth component of complement differ by few nucleotide changes within a region of substantial divergence from human C4.

Blood immunoglobulins, complement and TNF receptor following minimally invasive surgery in patients undergoing pulmonary lobectomy [PDF]

, 2015
The reasons for improved survival following minimally invasive surgery remain elusive. Circulating mediators link surgical trauma, vascular and tissue homeostasis. Acute phase reactants, leukocytes and leukocyte Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) are affected

Liver mRNA probes disclose two cytochrome P-450 genes duplicated in tandem with the complement C4 loci of the mouse H-2S region.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America, 1985
A search for uncharacterized genes of the S region of the murine H-2 major histocompatibility complex was undertaken; a series of cosmid clones previously aligned by overlap hybridizations were used as radiolabeled probes.

Mussel‐Inspired Molecular Strategies for Fabricating Functional Materials With Underwater Adhesion and Self‐Healing Properties

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review systematically examines the nanomechanical mechanisms of mussel‐inspired molecular interactions, primarily investigated by direct force measurement techniques such as surface forces apparatus and atomic force microscopy. The macroscopic adhesive and self‐healing performances of mussel‐inspired functional materials, including coacervates ...

Harnessing Synergistic Cooperation of Neighboring Active Motifs in Heterogeneous Catalysts for Enhanced Catalytic Performance

Advanced Materials, EarlyView.
This review examines the critical role of neighboring active motifs in heterogeneous catalysts, emphasizing how their synergistic cooperativity can be rationally designed to modulate catalytic properties. The discussion centers on the modulation of electronic and geometric structures, categorizing the catalytic systems into metal‐acid (Brønsted/Lewis ...

Association of C4d with disease activity in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody-associated vasculitis: evidence for classical/lectin complement pathway activation

Arthritis Research & Therapy
Background We aimed to investigate the involvement of the classical/lectin complement pathway in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) by exploring the complement activation fragment C4d in association to AAV activity ...
