Complement Receptor-1 Binding to Erythrocytes Under Normal and Pathological Membrane Deforming Conditions
PublicDownloadable Content
open in viewerIn primates, complement-coated invading microbes and immune complexes are efficiently removed from circulation by binding complement receptor-1 (CR1) on erythrocytes, a process known as immune-adherence clearance. This project examines the nature and functionality of complement binding to erythrocytes under normal and pathological conditions. The data identifies key factors associated with the complement-CR1 ligation pathway promoting membrane deformability, helping elucidate a greater understanding of this important, unique erythrocyte function.
