Complement Factor H-Related Proteins FHR1 and FHR5 Interact With Extracellular Matrix Ligands, Reduce Factor H Regulatory Activity and Enhance Complement Activation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Components of the extracellular matrix (ECM), when exposed to body fluids may promote local complement activation and inflammation. Pathologic complement activation at the glomerular basement membrane and at the Bruch’s membrane is implicated in renal ...

High Complement Factor H-Related (FHR)-3 Levels Are Associated With the Atypical Hemolytic-Uremic Syndrome-Risk Allele CFHR3*B

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2018
Dysregulation of the complement alternative pathway (AP) is a major pathogenic mechanism in atypical hemolytic-uremic syndrome (aHUS). Genetic or acquired defects in factor H (FH), the main AP regulator, are major aHUS drivers that associate with a poor ...

Factor H‐related protein 1: a complement regulatory protein and guardian of necrotic‐type surfaces [PDF]

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, 2020
Factor H‐related protein 1 (FHR‐1) is a member of the factor H protein family, which is involved in regulating innate immune complement reactions. Genetic modification of the encoding gene, CFHR1 on human chromosome 1, is involved in diseases such as age‐related macular degeneration, C3 glomerulopathy and atypical haemolytic uraemic syndrome ...

Inhibition of HIV-1 replication by small interfering RNAs directed against Glioma Pathogenesis Related Protein (GliPR) expression [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Background: Previously, we showed that glioma pathogenesis related protein (GliPR) is induced in CEM T cells upon HIV-1 infection in vitro. To examine whether GliPR plays a role as HIV dependency factor (HDF), we tested the effect of GliPR suppression by

Regulation of regulators: Role of the complement factor H-related proteins

open access: yesSeminars in Immunology, 2019
The complement system, while being an essential and very efficient effector component of innate immunity, may cause damage to the host and result in various inflammatory, autoimmune and infectious diseases or cancer, when it is improperly activated or regulated.

Catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome accompanied by complement regulatory gene mutation

open access: yesThe Turkish Journal of Pediatrics, 2023
Background. Antiphospholipid syndrome (APS), particularly the catastrophic antiphospholipid syndrome (CAPS), is one of the rare causes of thrombotic microangiopathy (TMA).

Estimation of interdomain flexibility of N-terminus of factor H using residual dipolar couplings [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Characterization of segmental flexibility is needed to understand the biological mechanisms of the very large category of functionally diverse proteins, exemplified by the regulators of complement activation, that consist of numerous compact modules or ...

Dimerization of complement factor H-related proteins modulates complement activation in vivo [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2013
The complement system is a key component regulation influences susceptibility to age-related macular degeneration, meningitis, and kidney disease. Variation includes genomic rearrangements within the complement factor H-related ( CFHR ) locus.
