Patients with alcohol‐associated hepatitis (AH) and alcohol‐cirrhosis (AC) show perturbations in complement. Complement activation pathways are perturbed in the urine of patients with AH and AC, and distinguish severe AH from AC. Complement perturbations can help physicians and researchers to understand the liver–kidney crosstalk in severe AH and AC ...

Abstract Ischemia‐reperfusion injury (IRI) is a prevalent condition that predominantly afflicts hospitalized patients, inducing acute kidney injury (AKI). In recent years, complement 5 (C5) and its anaphylatoxin receptor C5aR1 have been implicated in driving kidney IRI and loss of function.

Role of the complement anaphylatoxin C5a-receptor pathway in atopic dermatitis in mice
Atopic dermatitis (AD) is a chronic inflammatory skin disease with a genetic background. The C5a‑receptor (C5aR) pathway has been reported to be involved in AD; however, the precise pathogenesis remains to be elucidated. In the present study, the contribution of the C5aR pathway to AD in mice was investigated.

Background and Purpose Bruton tyrosine kinase (Btk) is essential for B cell function. Its role in myeloid cells is less understood. Greater insights into Btk significance in myeloid cells are needed to evaluate its potential as a therapeutic target during the effector phase of antibody‐induced autoimmune diseases, where inhibiting autoantibody ...

ABSTRACT Complement activation is a major barrier to xenotransplantation. We report detailed complement monitoring in a 58‐year‐old man who received a 10 gene–edited porcine heart expressing human complement regulators CD46 and CD55. Despite these transgenes and prophylactic systemic complement inhibition with C1 esterase inhibitor (C1INH), early ...

Local complement production by pulmonary artery adventitial fibroblasts, activated intracellularly by CFD and CFB and extracellularly by GZMK+ CD8 T cells, and its secretion in soluble form and within EVs promotes macrophage and T cell chemotaxis and activation.

ABSTRACT Background In pig‐to‐nonhuman primate islet transplantation, reliable, sensitive biomarkers are needed to detect graft damage at an early stage before irreversible islet loss occurs. In our study, we investigated donor‐derived cell‐free DNA (dd‐cfDNA) as an early, noninvasive biomarker of graft injury by analyzing its correlation with porcine ...

Pathophysiological mechanisms of disease severity in COVID-19: An update
The pandemic of COVID-19 has created a confounding global health crisis with more than 25 million cases and 870,000 deaths worldwide. The novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2, exploits the human ACE2 receptor and potential CD147 to invade a plethora of organ ...
