Undertaking a study of proteins found in the complement system, an important part of the immune system, of patients with long COVID, researchers have identified a blood protein ‘signature’ that may ...

With Alzheimer’s disease therapies finally reaching the market and hundreds of active clinical trials for therapies and diagnostics, it seems like every week brings another potential avenue to explore ...

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 ...

Complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and immunoglobulin A nephropathy (IgAN) kidney diseases are progressive glomerular conditions. Their treatments typically involve medications to control inflammation ...

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. It involves the systematic identification, quantification, and analysis of the entire protein complement ...

Please provide your email address to receive an email when new articles are posted on . A protein known as granzyme K was recently shown to be a driver of inflammation by activating the complement ...

In the last five years, neuronal pentraxins have emerged as potential markers of synaptic loss. In the case of NPTX2, researchers may now be able to explain why. In the March 29 Science Translational ...

Current treatment methods for C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) help support kidney function and suppress immune system activity. Emerging therapies interrupt the proteins responsible for disease activity. C3G ...
