Expression of the anaphylatoxin C5a receptor in non-myeloid cells

Molecular Immunology, 1999
C5, a 74 amino acid peptide cleaved from the complement protein C5, represents the most potent anaphylatoxin and possesses inflammatory as well as immunomodulatory activities. In the past, expression of the receptor for the anaphylatoxin C5a (C5aR) has been thought to be restricted to cells of myeloid origin.

C5A Anaphylatoxin and Its Seven Transmembrane-Segment Receptor

Annual Review of Immunology, 1994
The molecular cloning of the C5a receptor places this molecule in the superfamily of G-protein coupled receptors. This superfamily is characterized by the presence of signature motifs including seven hydrophobic domains which span the cell membrane and impart a predicted serpentine topology to the receptor proteins.

The chemotactic receptor for human C5a anaphylatoxin

Nature, 1991
Host defence and inflammatory responses are controlled and amplified by receptor-mediated events often initiated by a chemotactic factor that directs the approach of phagocytic cells. Complement receptors CR1 and CR3 are responsible for the phagocytic and adhesive properties of neutrophils, whereas the C5a receptor mediates the pro-inflammatory and ...

Distribution of Rat C5a Anaphylatoxin Receptor

Microbiology and Immunology, 2002
AbstractThe anaphylatoxin, complement 5a (C5a), plays a key role in mediating various inflammatory reactions following complement activation. Several investigators have reported that C5a receptor (C5aR) is expressed in non‐myeloid cells under certain conditions or in different cell lines.

Modeling Molecular Mechanisms of Binding of the Anaphylatoxin C5a to the C5a Receptor

Biochemistry, 2008
This study presents the 3D model of the complex between the anaphylatoxin C5a and its specific receptor, C5aR. This is the first 3D model of a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) complex with a peptide ligand deduced by a molecular modeling procedure analyzing various conformational possibilities of the extracellular loops and the N-terminal segment of ...
