Human platelets and their capacity of binding viruses: Meaning and challenges? [PDF]

, 2015
Blood platelets are first aimed at ensuring primary hemostasis. Beyond this role, they have been acknowledged as having functions in the maintenance of the vascular arborescence and, more recently, as being also innate immune cells, devoted notably to ...

CR3 is the dominant phagocytotic complement receptor on human dendritic cells. [PDF]

, 2013
Dendritic cells (DCs) play a decisive role in immunity; they interact with various pathogens via several pattern recognition and different opsonophagocytotic receptors, including Fc- and complement-receptors. beta2-integrins, including complement

CR2 Complement Receptor

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 1990
CR2, a membrane glycoprotein, is one of a number of cell-surface proteins which bind activation and processing fragments of the complement system. CR2, which is found on normal B lymphocytes, follicular dendritic cells in lymphoid organs, and epithelial cells, interacts preferentially with C3dg, the terminal activation/processing fragment of the third ...

The tumour microenvironment links complement system dysregulation and hypoxic signalling. [PDF]

, 2018
The complement system is an innate immune pathway typically thought of as part of the first line of defence against "non-self" species. In the context of cancer, complement has been described to have an active role in facilitating cancer-associated ...

Complement C2 Receptor Inhibitor Trispanning: A Novel Human Complement Inhibitory Receptor [PDF]

The Journal of Immunology, 2005
AbstractThe complement system presents a powerful defense against infection and is tightly regulated to prevent damage to self by functionally equivalent soluble and membrane regulators. We describe complement C2 receptor inhibitor trispanning (CRIT), a novel human complement regulatory receptor, expressed on hemopoietic cells and a wide range of ...

Modulation of apoprotein E secretion in response to receptor-mediated endocytosis in resident and inflammatory macrophages. [PDF]

, 1984
We have determined the effect of various endocytic ligands on the secretion of ApoE by macrophages. ApoE was a major secreted protein of resident macrophages, but BCG-activated macrophages secreted little ApoE and periodate-elicited macrophages secreted ...

Alteration in Leukocyte Subsets and Expressions of FcγR and Complement Receptors among Female Ragpickers in Eastern India

Safety and Health at Work, 2017
Background: There are a million ragpickers in India who gather and trade recyclable municipal solid wastes materials for a living. The objective of this study was to examine whether their occupation adversely affects their immunity. Methods: Seventy-four

Modulation of porcine intestinal epitheliocytes immunetranscriptome response by Lactobacillus jensenii TL2937 [PDF]

, 2016
In order to evaluate probiotic strains applicable for the beneficial immunomodulation of the porcine gut (immunobiotics), we previously developed a porcine intestinal epitheliocyte cell line (PIE cells).
