    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

    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…

    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
