mSphere, 2019 Meningococcal serogroup B (MenB) vaccines contain recombinant factor H binding protein (FHbp), which can complex with complement factor H (CFH) and thereby risk eliciting anti-FH autoantibodies.

Complement-Independent Modulation of Influenza A Virus Infection by Factor H
Frontiers in Immunology, 2020 The complement system is an ancient innate immune defense mechanism that can recognize molecular patterns on the invading pathogens. Factor H, as an inhibitor of the alternative pathway, down-regulates complement activation on the host cell surface ...

Recognizing $\mathrm{PSL}(2,p)$ in the non-Frattini chief factors of finite groups [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Given a finite group $G$, let $P_G(s)$ be the probability that $s$ randomly chosen elements generate $G$, and let $H$ be a finite group with $P_G(s)=P_H(s)$. We show that if the nonabelian composition factors of $G$ and $H$ are $\mathrm{PSL}(2,p)$ for some non-Mersense prime $p\geq 5$, then $G$ and $H$ have the same non-Frattini chief factors.

Factor H complements AMD [PDF]
Science-Business eXchange, 2011 EU and U.S. researchers have revealed what could be the mechanistic underpinnings of the increased risk for age-related macular degeneration in individuals with a common polymorphism in the gene for complement factor H.

On factor width and symmetric H-matrices [PDF]
Linear Algebra and its Applications, 2005 AbstractWe define a matrix concept we call factor width. This gives a hierarchy of matrix classes for symmetric positive semidefinite matrices, or a set of nested cones. We prove that the set of symmetric matrices with factor width at most two is exactly the class of (possibly singular) symmetric H-matrices (also known as generalized diagonally ...

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

Dominant tournament families [PDF]
arXiv, 2020 For a tournament $H$ with $h$ vertices, its typical density is $h!2^{-\binom{h}{2}}/aut(H)$, i.e. this is the expected density of $H$ in a random tournament. A family ${\mathcal F}$ of $h$-vertex tournaments is {\em dominant} if for all sufficiently large $n$, there exists an $n$-vertex tournament $G$ such that the density of each element of ${\mathcal

Human Factor H-Related Protein 2 (CFHR2) Regulates Complement Activation
PLoS ONE, 2013 Mutations and deletions within the human CFHR gene cluster on chromosome 1 are associated with diseases, such as dense deposit disease, CFHR nephropathy or age-related macular degeneration. Resulting mutant CFHR proteins can affect complement regulation.

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.Venom peptides have shown promise in treating pain. Our study uses computer screening to identify a peptide that targets a sodium channel (NaV1.7) linked to chronic pain. We produced the peptide in the laboratory and refined its design, advancing the search for innovative pain therapies.
