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

Utilization of complement receptors in immune cell - microbe interaction.
FEBS 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 ...

Innate and adaptive AAV-mediated immune responses in a mouse model of Duchenne muscular dystrophy
Molecular Therapy: Methods & Clinical Development, 2023 High systemic doses of adeno-associated viruses (AAVs) have been associated with immune-related serious adverse events (SAEs). Although AAV was well tolerated in preclinical models, SAEs were observed in clinical trials, indicating the need for improved ...

Helix 8 in chemotactic receptors of the complement system.
PLoS Computational Biology, 2022 Host response to infection involves the activation of the complement system leading to the production of anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a. Complement factor C5a exerts its effect through the activation of C5aR1, chemotactic receptor 1, and triggers the G ...
