Hepatitis C virus NS3/4A protease inhibits complement activation by cleaving complement component 4.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
BackgroundIt has been hypothesized that persistent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is mediated in part by viral proteins that abrogate the host immune response, including the complement system, but the precise mechanisms are not well understood.

Altered Complement System Activity in Schizophrenia: Overexpression of C4 and/or Abnormal Expression of Complement Control Proteins in the DLPFC, Parietal Cortex, Temporal Cortex, Associative Striatum, Hippocampus, Cerebellum and Whole Blood

open access: yesEuropean Psychiatry, 2022
Introduction In schizophrenia, abnormal synaptic pruning during adolescence may be due to an altered Complement system activity. While this hypothesis is supported by C4 overexpression in various brain regions of individuals with schizophrenia, such ...
