Francisella tularensis Confronts the Complement System
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 Francisella tularensis has developed a number of effective evasion strategies to counteract host immune defenses, not the least of which is its ability to interact with the complement system to its own advantage.

Combined anti-C1-INH and radiotherapy against glioblastoma
BMC Cancer, 2023 Background A more effective immune response against glioblastoma is needed in order to achieve better tumor control. Radiotherapy can induce anti-tumor mediated immune reactions, in addition to its dose response effects.

Nonresonance conditions for arrangements [PDF]
, 2002 We prove a vanishing theorem for the cohomology of the complement of a complex hyperplane arrangement with coefficients in a complex local system. This result is compared with other vanishing theorems, and used to study Milnor fibers of line arrangements,

Pitfalls in complement analysis: A systematic literature review of assessing complement activation
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 BackgroundThe complement system is an essential component of our innate defense and plays a vital role in the pathogenesis of many diseases. Assessment of complement activation is critical in monitoring both disease progression and response to therapy ...

A C3(H20) recycling pathway is a component of the intracellular complement system [PDF]
, 2017 An intracellular complement system (ICS) has recently been described in immune and nonimmune human cells. This system can be activated in a convertase-independent manner from intracellular stores of the complement component C3. The source of these stores

The tumour microenvironment links complement system dysregulation and hypoxic signalling. [PDF]
, 2018 The complement system is an innate immune pathway typically thought of as part of the first line of defence against "non-self" species. In the context of cancer, complement has been described to have an active role in facilitating cancer-associated ...
