Complement and its role in innate and adaptive immune
... (Figure 2A) [37]. To prevent nonspecific C3b degradation, for instance in the case of proper complement activation, Factor I requires cofactors for its proteolytic activity. These cofactors include membrane cofactor protein (MCP; CD46), complement receptor 1 (CR1), and Factor H which are either intr ...

Lymphoid follicles in (very) severe COPD: beneficial or harmful? REVIEW
... of B-cell follicles. As seen in other tissues, these follicles are the result of lymphoid neogenesis. The finding of oligoclonality in B-cell follicles in COPD suggests that they play a role in local antigen specific immune responses. To date, it is not known which antigens may be involved; microbia ...

Current and novel therapeutics in the treatment of systemic lupus erythematosus
... Agents that target B cells are the mAbs rituximab, ofatumumab, ocrelizumab and veltuzumab (anti-CD20), epratuzumab (anti-CD22), belimumab (anti–B-cell lymphocyte-activating factor [BAFF]), and atacicept (anti-BAFF and a proliferationinducing ligand [APRIL]) (Fig 1). Anti-CD20 (rituximab) is a chimer ...

Mucosal candidiasis is the most common form of infection by C. albicans (Moran et al., 2012), but available in vivo animal models have limitations for imaging immune cell and pathogen interactions intravitally. We sought to exploit the transparency of the juvenile zebrafish to investigate the intera ...
