Neonatal and adult recent thymic emigrants produce IL-8 and express complement receptors CR1 and CR2. [PDF]

open access: yesJCI Insight, 2017
The maintenance of peripheral naive T lymphocytes in humans is dependent on their homeostatic division, not continuing emigration from the thymus, which undergoes involution with age.

Alteration in Leukocyte Subsets and Expressions of FcγR and Complement Receptors among Female Ragpickers in Eastern India. [PDF]

open access: yesSaf Health Work, 2017
Background: There are a million ragpickers in India who gather and trade recyclable municipal solid wastes materials for a living. The objective of this study was to examine whether their occupation adversely affects their immunity. Methods: Seventy-four

Receptor-Mediated NETosis on Neutrophils

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs), a web-like structures containing chromatin, have a significant role in assisting the capture and killing of microorganisms by neutrophils during infection.

Neutrophils Require Activation to Express Functional Cell-Surface Complement Receptor Immunoglobulin

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
The phagocytosis-promoting complement receptor, Complement Receptor Immunoglobulin (CRIg), is exclusively expressed on macrophages. It has been demonstrated that expression in macrophages could be modulated by inflammatory mediators, including cytokines.

Mathematical Characterization of Private and Public Immune Repertoire Sequences [PDF]

open access: yesBull Math Biol 85, 102 (2023), 2022
Diverse T and B cell repertoires play an important role in mounting effective immune responses against a wide range of pathogens and malignant cells. The number of unique T and B cell clones is characterized by T and B cell receptors (TCRs and BCRs), respectively.

Blood Transcriptome Analysis of Septic Patients Reveals a Long Non-Coding Alu-RNA in the Complement C5a Receptor 1 Gene

open access: yesNon-Coding RNA, 2022
Many severe inflammation conditions are complement-dependent with the complement component C5a-C5aR1 axis as an important driver. At the RNA level, the blood transcriptome undergoes programmed expression of coding and long non-coding RNAs to combat ...

Utilization of complement receptors in immune cell - microbe interaction.

open access: yesFEBS Letters, 2020
The complement system is a major humoral component of immunity and is essential for the fast elimination of pathogens invading the body. In addition to its indispensable role in innate immunity, the complement system is also involved in pathogen ...

The Role of Complement in the Mechanism of Action of Therapeutic Anti-Cancer mAbs

open access: yesAntibodies, 2020
Unconjugated anti-cancer IgG1 monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) activate antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity (ADCC) by natural killer (NK) cells and antibody-dependent cellular phagocytosis (ADCP) by macrophages, and these activities are thought to be ...

C3‐dependent effector functions of complement

open access: yesImmunological Reviews, 2022
C3 is the central effector molecule of the complement system, mediating its multiple functions through different binding sites and their corresponding receptors. We will introduce the C3 forms (native C3, C3 [H2O], and intracellular C3), the C3 fragments

Tetracycline as an inhibitor to the coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 [PDF]

open access: yesJ Cell Biochem (2021) 1-8, 2020
The coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 remains an extant threat against public health on a global scale. Cell infection begins when the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 binds with the cell receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2). Here, we address the role of Tetracycline as an inhibitor for the receptor-binding domain (RBD) of the spike protein.
