Mashup Score: 2Therapeutic Small Interfering RNA Targeting Complement C3 in a Mouse Model of C3 Glomerulopathy - 2 year(s) ago
Alternative pathway complement dysregulation with abnormal glomerular C3 deposits and glomerular damage is a key mechanism of pathology in C3 glomerulopathy (C3G). No disease-specific treatments are currently available for C3G. Therapeutics inhibiting complement are emerging as a potential strategy

Mashup Score: 5The multifaceted impact of complement on atherosclerosis - 2 year(s) ago
As one of the cornerstones of innate immunity, the complement system has long been implicated in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis. Growing evidence demonstrates the presence of complement activation products in human atherosclerotic plaques, where they can exhibit both protective and proatherogenic properties as supported by numerous experimental findings. While complement initiation resulting…

Mashup Score: 0Membrane attack complex (MAC) deposition in renal tubules is associated with interstitial fibrosis and tubular atrophy: a pilot study - 2 year(s) ago
Introduction Treatment failures for lupus nephritis (LN) are high with 10%–30% of patients progressing to end-stage renal disease (ESRD) within 10 years. Interstitial fibrosis/tubular atrophy (IFTA) is a predictor of progression to ESRD. Prior studies suggest that tubulointerstitial injury secondary to proteinuria in LN is mediated by complement activation in the tubules, specifically through the…

The anaphylatoxin C5a is core effector of complement activation. C5a exerts potent proinflammatory and immunomodulatory actions through interacting with its C5a receptors, C5aR1 and C5aR2, modulating multiple signaling and functional activities of immune cells. Native C5a contains a large N -linked
