Factor H gene variants in Japanese: Its relation to atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]
Mutations and polymorphisms of factor H gene (FH1) are known to be closely involved in the developmentof atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS). Several groups have identified disease risk mutations andpolymorphisms of FH1 for the development of aHUS,

Complement proteins changes in ischemic stroke patients and their relation to outcome
We studied plasma levels of complement system factors C1q, C2, C3, C3b, C4, C4b, C5, C5a, C9 of 84 patients with ischemic stroke within 24 h from onset of symptoms and on seventh day after admission, using Luminex immunoassay.

Attenuation of myocardial reperfusion injury in pigs by Mirococept, a membrane-targeted complement inhibitor derived from human CR1 [PDF]
Objectives Membrane-targeted application of complement inhibitors may ameliorate ischemia/reperfusion (I/R) injury by directly targeting damaged cells. We investigated whether Mirococept, a membrane-targeted, myristoylated peptidyl construct derived from
