Extremes of l-ficolin concentration in children with recurrent infections are associated with single nucleotide polymorphisms in the FCN2 gene

open access: yesClinical and Experimental Immunology, 2007
Summary l-ficolin (also called ficolin-2, P35 or hucolin) is a soluble pattern recognition molecule of suspected importance in anti-microbial immunity. It activates the lectin pathway of complement and acts as an opsonin. l-ficolin, encoded by the FCN2 gene, recognizes microbial polysaccharides and glycoconjugates rich in GlcNAc or ...

Complement pathway dysregulation and astrocyte alterations in Down syndrome: evidence from postmortem brain tissue and iPSC-derived astrocytes [PDF]

open access: yesActa Neuropathologica Communications
Background Down syndrome (DS), or trisomy 21 (T21), resulting from an extra copy of chromosome 21, occurs in 1 in 700–1,000 live births. Neuroinflammation is increasingly recognized as a critical contributor to DS neuropathology, although its underlying ...
