CR2 Complement Receptor

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1990
CR2, a membrane glycoprotein, is one of a number of cell-surface proteins which bind activation and processing fragments of the complement system. CR2, which is found on normal B lymphocytes, follicular dendritic cells in lymphoid organs, and epithelial cells, interacts preferentially with C3dg, the terminal activation/processing fragment of the third ...

Complement 1q/Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Proteins (CTRPs): Structure, Receptors and Signaling

Biomedicines, 2023
Adiponectin and the other 15 members of the complement 1q (C1q)/tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related protein (CTRP) family are secreted proteins composed of an N-terminal variable domain followed by a stalk region and a characteristic C-terminal ...

Preferential association of hepatitis C virus with CD19+ B cells is mediated by complement system [PDF]

, 2016
Extrahepatic disease manifestations are common in chronic hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection. The mechanism of HCV-related lymphoproliferative disorders is not fully understood.

Complement Proteins as Soluble Pattern Recognition Receptors for Pathogenic Viruses

Viruses, 2021
The complement system represents a crucial part of innate immunity. It contains a diverse range of soluble activators, membrane-bound receptors, and regulators.

Modulation of apoprotein E secretion in response to receptor-mediated endocytosis in resident and inflammatory macrophages. [PDF]

, 1984
We have determined the effect of various endocytic ligands on the secretion of ApoE by macrophages. ApoE was a major secreted protein of resident macrophages, but BCG-activated macrophages secreted little ApoE and periodate-elicited macrophages secreted ...

Complement C2 Receptor Inhibitor Trispanning: A Novel Human Complement Inhibitory Receptor [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2005
AbstractThe complement system presents a powerful defense against infection and is tightly regulated to prevent damage to self by functionally equivalent soluble and membrane regulators. We describe complement C2 receptor inhibitor trispanning (CRIT), a novel human complement regulatory receptor, expressed on hemopoietic cells and a wide range of ...

Circumventing antivector immunity: potential use of nonhuman adenoviral vectors [PDF]

, 2014
Adenoviruses are efficient gene delivery vectors based on their ability to transduce a wide variety of cell types and drive high-level transient transgene expression. While there have been advances in modifying human adenoviral (HAdV) vectors to increase

Neuropilin-1 Acts as a Receptor for Complement Split Products

Frontiers in Immunology, 2019
Complement split products (CSPs), such as the fragments C4d and C3d, which are generated as a consequence of complement regulatory processes, are established markers for disease activity in autoimmunity or antibody-mediated graft rejection.

Immune-Complex Mimics as a Molecular Platform for Adjuvant-Free Vaccine Delivery [PDF]

, 2013
Protein-based vaccine development faces the difficult challenge of finding robust yet non-toxic adjuvants suitable for humans. Here, using a molecular engineering approach, we have developed a molecular platform for generating self-adjuvanting immunogens
