Inhibition of monocyte complement receptor enhancement by low molecular weight material from human lung cancers [PDF]
We have studied the effect of dialysates from lung cancer homogenates to alter both the expression of complement (C3b) receptors per se and also to inhibit leucoattractant-induced enhancement of complement rosettes on monocytes from healthy individuals ...

ABSTRACT Pediatric refractory immune thrombocytopenia (rITP) is generally characterized by persistent thrombocytopenia and failure to achieve a sustained response to multiple standard therapies. We report a 4‐year‐old female with congenital tufting enteropathy, post‐intestinal transplant patient on immunosuppressants, who developed severe rITP ...

ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

Paths reunited: initiation of the classical and lectin pathways of complement activation [PDF]
Understanding the structural organisation and mode of action of the initiating complex of the classical pathway of complement activation (C1) has been a central goal in complement biology since its isolation almost 50 years ago.

IgA Nephropathy: Current Treatment and New Insights
IgA Nephropathy (IgAN) is the most common cause of primary glomerulonephritis worldwide. Despite the histopathologic hallmark of mesangial IgA deposition, IgAN is a heterogenous autoimmune disease not only in terms of clinical presentation but also in ...

Organoids in pediatric cancer research
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.
