These findings suggest complement protein levels may be an important biomarker for type 1 diabetes. Disruption of the complement system appears to precede the onset of islet autoimmunity (IA), making ...
Levels of C4d and C4d/C4 associate with clinical and histopathological treatment response in proliferative lupus nephritis. Complement activation markers, particularly C4d and the C4d/C4 ratio, are ...
Researchers discover a link between an increase in protein Ba of the complement immune system and the eventual development of thrombotic microangiopathy in patients who have received an allogeneic ...
Among people with sickle cell disease—an inherited blood disorder—acute chest syndrome (ACS) is the leading cause of death. The condition is the result of red blood cells becoming stiff, sticky, and ...
Transplant-associated thrombotic microangiopathy (TA-TMA) is a fatal complication that can occur after an allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT). Study finds that despite ...
