Anti-Factor H Antibodies in Egyptian Children with Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
International Journal of Nephrology, 2021 Background. Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is an important cause of acute kidney injury in children. It is primarily caused by dysregulation of the complement alternative pathway due to genetic mutations, mainly in complement factor H genes ...

Factor H Cleavage by the Treponema denticola Protease Dentilisin: Understanding the Pathogenesis of Periodontal Disease [PDF]
, 2013 Periodontal disease is an infectious condition that results in the inflammation and gradual degradation of gum tissue and alveolar bone. Caused by plaque deposits on teeth that harden into tartar to inflame gum tissue, the condition is highly pervasive ...

Properdin has an ascendancy over factor H regulation in complement-mediated renal tubular damage [PDF]
, 2014 BACKGROUND: Urinary (U)-complement components have been detected in patients with proteinuric renal diseases, and complement activation via the alternative pathway (AP) is believed to play a role in renal tubular damage.

Nefrología (English Edition), 2022 The complement system is a first line of defence against infectious, tumoral or autoimmune processes, and it is constitutively regulated to avoid excessive or unspecific activation. Factor H (FH), a most relevant complement regulator, controls complement

CFHTLenS: Weak lensing constraints on the ellipticity of galaxy-scale matter haloes and the galaxy-halo misalignment [PDF]
, 2015 We present weak lensing constraints on the ellipticity of galaxy-scale matter haloes and the galaxy-halo misalignment. Using data from the Canada-France-Hawaii Telescope Lensing Survey (CFHTLenS), we measure the weighted-average ratio of the aligned ...

A Neighborhood Condition for Fractional ID-[A, B]-Factor-Critical Graphs
Discussiones Mathematicae Graph Theory, 2016 Let G be a graph of order n, and let a and b be two integers with 1 ≤ a ≤ b. Let h : E(G) → [0, 1] be a function. If a ≤ ∑e∋x h(e) ≤ b holds for any x ∈ V (G), then we call G[Fh] a fractional [a, b]-factor of G with indicator function h, where Fh = {e ...

Implementation of barycentric resampling for continuous wave searches in gravitational wave data [PDF]
, 2010 We describe an efficient implementation of a coherent statistic for continuous gravitational wave searches from neutron stars. The algorithm works by transforming the data taken by a gravitational wave detector from a moving Earth bound frame to one that
