Complement 1q/Tumor Necrosis Factor-Related Proteins (CTRPs): Structure, Receptors and Signaling

Biomedicines, 2023
Adiponectin and the other 15 members of the complement 1q (C1q)/tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-related protein (CTRP) family are secreted proteins composed of an N-terminal variable domain followed by a stalk region and a characteristic C-terminal ...

New insights for C5a and C5a receptors in sepsis

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
The complement system plays a central role in inflammation and immunity. Among the complement activation products, C5a is one of the most potent inflammatory peptides with a broad spectrum of functions.

Complement Plays a Critical Role in Inflammation-Induced Immunoprophylaxis Failure in Mice

Frontiers in Immunology, 2021
Complement impacts innate and adaptive immunity. Using a model in which the human KEL glycoprotein is expressed on murine red blood cells (RBCs), we have shown that polyclonal immunoprophylaxis (KELIg) prevents alloimmunization to transfused RBCs when a ...

A hierarchical role for classical pathway complement proteins in the clearance of apoptotic cells in vivo [PDF]

, 2000
The strongest susceptibility genes for the development of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) in humans are null mutants of classical pathway complement proteins. There is a hierarchy of disease susceptibility and severity according to the position of the

Backbone dynamics of complement control protein (CCP) modules reveals mobility in binding surfaces [PDF]

, 2004
The regulators of complement activation (RCA) are critical to health and disease because their role is to ensure that a complement-mediated immune response to infection is proportionate and targeted.

Structural Immunology of Complement Receptors 3 and 4

Frontiers in Immunology, 2018
Complement receptors (CR) 3 and 4 belong to the family of beta-2 (CD18) integrins. CR3 and CR4 are often co-expressed in the myeloid subsets of leukocytes, but they are also found in NK cells and activated T and B lymphocytes.

Complement peptide receptors in GtoPdb v.2023.1 [PDF]

, 2023
Complement peptide receptors (nomenclature as agreed by the NC-IUPHAR subcommittee on Complement peptide receptors [113]) are activated by the endogenous ~75 amino-acid anaphylatoxin polypeptides C3a and C5a, generated upon stimulation of the complement ...
