P183: 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 کاملSupported Liquid Membrane in Metal Ion Separation: An Overview
Using liquid membrane and, in particular, supported liquid membrane (SLM) is a novel method of separation in comparison to other methods such as adsorption, extraction and ion exchange. SLM is a combination of simultaneous extraction and disposal whose high efciency and capability is proven by many studies. So far, many researchers have utilized SLM in various scientifc...
متن کاملComplement Evasion Strategies of Viruses: An Overview
Being a major first line of immune defense, the complement system keeps a constant vigil against viruses. Its ability to recognize large panoply of viruses and virus-infected cells, and trigger the effector pathways, results in neutralization of viruses and killing of the infected cells. This selection pressure exerted by complement on viruses has made them evolve a multitude of countermeasures...
متن کاملArabidopsis leaf plasma membrane proteome using a gel free method: Focus on receptor–like kinases
The hydrophobic proteins of plant plasma membrane still remain largely unknown. For example in the Arabidopsis genome, receptor-like kinases (RLKs) are plasma membrane proteins, functioning as the primary receptors in the signaling of stress conditions, hormones and the presence of pathogens form a diverse family of over 610 genes. A limited number of these proteins have appeard in pr...
متن کاملModern complement analysis.
Complement, as a vital part of the body’s immune system, provides a highly effective means for the destruction of invading microorganisms and for immune complex elimination (for reviews, see references 77 and 78). Through activation and interaction with its respective receptors on various immune cells, complement is closely linked to the adaptive immune response. A normally functioning compleme...
