Correlation of α1-antitrypsin (A1AT), Complement component C5a and Secretory Immunoglobulin A (sIgA) with pulmonary complications; 20 years after sulfur mustard exposure, Sardasht-Iran Cohort Study
Background: Little is known about pulmonary complications induced by Sulfur Mustard (SM), as a chemical warfare agent,especially considering its long term effects. The present study was carried out to investigate the association of α1-antitrypsin(A1AT), Complement component C5a, and Secretory Immunoglobulin A (sIgA) with long-term pulmonary complications on SMexposedindividuals, 20 years after ...
متن کاملChanging Roles of Matrix Metalloproteases and Their Inhibitors, TIMPs, During Tumor Progression and Angiogenesis
Inhibition of matrix-metalloproteinases (MMPs) by tissue inhibitors of metalloproteinases (TIMPs) has been shown in vivo to decrease metastasis and tumor-associated angiogenesis. Our laboratory is interested in understanding the role of these proteins at the pericellular microenvironment of tumor and endothelial cells. Secretion of MMPs by tumor cells enables the migration, invasion and metasta...
متن کاملAnaphylatoxin C5a creates a favorable microenvironment for lung cancer progression.
The complement system contributes to various immune and inflammatory diseases, including cancer. In this study, we investigated the capacity of lung cancer cells to activate complement and characterized the consequences of complement activation on tumor progression. We focused our study on the production and role of the anaphylatoxin C5a, a potent immune mediator generated after complement acti...
متن کاملP183: Key Function of Complement System in Interactions between Pain and Nociceptors, C5a, and C3a
A part of the immune system that improves (complements) the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear microorganisms and injured cells from an organism, attacks the pathogen's cell membrane, and encourages inflammation called complement system. It is main part of immune system. Over thirty proteins and protein pieces compose the complement system, including cell membrane receptors, an...
متن کاملA novel multiplex detection array revealed systemic complement activation in oral squamous cell carcinoma
Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is one of the most common tumors within the oral cavity. Early diagnosis and prognosis tools are urgently needed. This study aimed to investigate the activation of the complement system in OSCC patients as potential biomarker. Therefore, an innovative complement activation array was developed. Characterized antibodies detecting the complement activation speci...
