The alternative pathway of complement is important in innate immunity, attacking not only microbes but all unprotected biological surfaces through powerful amplification. It is unresolved how host and ...

Background We have developed imaging probes for detecting C3d deposits in the kidneys and other tissues. After immune-complexes deposit in the glomeruli of patients with lupus nephritis (LN) and other ...

One of the challenges faced when developing influenza virus vaccines is the problem of how to protect populations in the face of spreading pandemics. With the advent of air travel, this readily ...

Tumors are immunogenic in part because of somatic mutations that originate novel peptides that once presented on MHC engage cell-mediated immunity (CMI). However, in spite of the higher mutation load ...

Background We have developed a positron emission tomography (PET)-based imaging probe for detecting inflammation in the kidneys. After immune-complexes deposit in the glomeruli of patients with lupus ...

This is 3D convolution (C3D) and video reader implementation in the latest Caffe (Dec 2016). The original Facebook C3D implementation is branched out from Caffe on July 17, 2014 with git commit ...

A glycoprotein binding complement component C3d was isolated from media used for culture of Raji human lymphoblastoid cells. Analysis by sodium dodecyl sulfate/polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and ...

The complement activating aggregates in synovial fluids of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) have been isolated using monoclonal IgM anti-C3d antibodies attached to solid phases, and the content ...
