Different adaptation strategies of two citrus scion/rootstock combinations in response to drought stress [PDF]
Scion/rootstock interaction is important for plant development and for breeding programs. In this context, polyploid rootstocks presented several advantages, mainly in relation to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Factor H-related proteins (FHRs) are found in mice, but their equivalence to human FHRs remains uncertain. This study identifies three FHRs in mouse plasma (FHR-B, FHR-C, and FHR-E) and focuses on characterizing FHR-B.

Evidence for gliadin antibodies as causative agents in schizophrenia. [PDF]
Antibodies to gliadin, a component of gluten, have frequently been reported in schizophrenia. Highly immunogenic B cell epitopes along its length are homologous to numerous proteins relevant to schizophrenia, including members of the DISC1 interactome ...

#5921 COMPLEMENT FACTOR H RELATED PROTEINS AND IGA NEPHROPATHY: CLINICAL CORRELATION
Abstract Background and Aims Complement Factor H (FH) function is modulated by their homologous FH related proteins (FHRs), which compete with FH for binding to certain ligands on plasma and on cellular surfaces.

Factor H-related protein 1 neutralizes anti-factor H autoantibodies in autoimmune hemolytic uremic syndrome [PDF]
The autoimmune form of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (HUS) is characterized by circulating autoantibodies against the complement regulator factor H, and is often associated with deficiency of the factor H-related proteins CFHR1 and CFHR3. Here we studied whether anti-factor H autoantibodies crossreact with CFHR1, and determined functional ...

Elevated plasma complement factor H related 5 protein is associated with venous thromboembolism
AbstractVenous thromboembolism (VTE) is a common, multi-causal disease with potentially serious short- and long-term complications. In clinical practice, there is a need for improved plasma biomarker-based tools for VTE diagnosis and risk prediction. Here we show, using proteomics profiling to screen plasma from patients with suspected acute VTE, and ...
