Complement receptors CD21 and CD35 in humoral immunity.
The complement system is a family of proteins that is involved in both innate and adaptive immunity. Complement receptors CD21 and CD35, which recognize activated products of C3 and C4, are predominantly expressed on B cells and follicular dendritic cells (FDCs) in the mouse. In this review, we focus on the role of FDC-expressed CD21 and CD35 in humoral immunity. They are the principle receptor...
متن کاملEvaluating Complement-Mediated Humoral Immunity to P. falciparum Blood Stages
Understanding mechanisms of immunity that protect from malaria is essential for the development of highly effective vaccines. The merozoite form of the parasite, which invades red blood cells, is an important target of protective immunity (Beeson et al., 2016). Biryukov et al. bring to our attention the potential ability of complement factors to enhance P. falciparum merozoite invasion in vitro...
متن کاملHumoral regulation of cell-mediated immunity to syngeneic tumor.
Inoculation i.p. of C57BL/6 mice with FBL-3 cells, a syngeneic Friend virus-induced leukemia, results in progressive growth of ascitic tumors; in contrast, s.c. inoculation of FBL-3 cells produces transient, localized tumor growth; the recipients are then subsequently resistant to further i.p. challenge of this tumor. Experiments were performed to study the effects of humoral factors that might...
متن کاملHumoral immunity in cardiomyopathy.
Sera from patients with heart disease were examined by single sandwich indirect immunofluorescence for the presence of antibodies to human heart muscle. Endocardial biopsy specimens were also examined by direct immunofluorescence for deposition of antibodies in vivo. No consistent or specific abnormality was found in the biopsy specimens or sera of patients with congestive cardiomyopathy. The p...
