Loxoscelism is the clinical condition produced by the venom of spiders belonging to the genus Loxosceles, which can be observed as two well-defined clinical variants: cutaneous loxoscelism and systemic or viscerocutaneous loxoscelism. We have recentl

We have examined the relative mRNA expression of the complement (C) regulatory proteins CD59, CD55 and CD46 in RNA isolated from 50 primary breast cancer specimens using a semiquantitative RT-PCR approach. Having normalized the mRNA expression levels

Dysregulation of the initial, innate immune response to bacterial infection may lead to septic shock and death. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in this innate immune response, and yet the regulatory mechanisms controlling microbial-ind

This study investigated the capacity of neurons and astrocytes to spontaneously activate the complement system and control activation by expressing complement regulators. Human fetal neurons spontaneously activated complement through the classical pa

This report describes the engineering, expression, purification and functional characterization of a soluble recombinant form of murine CD59 (srMoCD59). We report the expression in Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells of a modified mouse CD59 cDNA that

Molecular cloning of mouse decay accelerating factor (DAF; CD55) predicted two forms of the molecule, one transmembrane (TM) and the other glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored; these are encoded by separate genes termed Daf-GPI and Daf-TM. In

CD59 is a widely distributed membrane-bound glycoprotein that inhibits the formation of the cytolytic membrane attack complex (MAC) of complement on host cells. CD59 from different species varies in its capacity to inhibit heterologous complement, an

We describe the localization of the gene encoding reticulocalbin, a Ca 2+ -binding protein of the endoplasmic reticulum, on human chromosome 11p13 midway between the WT1 and the PAX6 genes and show that it is hemizygously deleted in WAGR individuals.

This study reports the expression and functional characterization of the rat analogue of the human complement regulatory molecule CD59. We here describe the expression in chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells of rat CD59 and a modified rat CD59 in which
