بررسی سطح سرمی C–Reactive Protein Mannoseو Mannose–Binding Lectin در افراد مبتلا به درماتوفیتوزیس
Background: Interleukin8 (IL-8) realized from keratinocytes in the presence of dermatophytic antigens causesinduction of acute responses in dermatophyte infection and subsequently production of acute phaseproteins occurs in hepatocytes. C–reactive protein (CRP) and Mannose–binding lectin (MBL) areacute phase proteins. Since few researches in the case of acute phase proteins in dermatophyticinfe...
متن کاملEndothelial oxidative stress activates the lectin complement pathway: role of cytokeratin 1.
Oxidative stress increases endothelial mannose-binding lectin (MBL) binding and activates the lectin complement pathway (LCP). However, the molecular mechanism of MBL binding to the endothelium after oxidative stress is unknown. Intermediate filaments have been previously reported to activate the classical complement pathway in an antibody-independent manner. We investigated whether oxidative s...
متن کاملA keratin peptide inhibits mannose-binding lectin.
Complement plays a significant role in mediating endothelial injury following oxidative stress. We have previously demonstrated that the lectin complement pathway (LCP), which is initiated by deposition of the mannose-binding lectin (MBL), is largely responsible for activating complement on endothelial cells following periods of oxidative stress. Identifying functional inhibitors that block MBL...
متن کاملHuman C1qRp is identical with CD93 and the mNI-11 antigen but does not bind C1q.
It has been suggested that the human C1qRp is a receptor for the complement component C1q; however, there is no direct evidence for an interaction between C1q and C1qRp. In this study, we demonstrate that C1q does not show enhanced binding to C1qRp-transfected cells compared with control cells. Furthermore, a soluble recombinant C1qRp-Fc chimera failed to interact with immobilized C1q. The prop...
متن کاملComplement activation after oxidative stress: role of the lectin complement pathway.
The complement system plays an important role in mediating tissue injury after oxidative stress. The role of mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and the lectin complement pathway (LCP) in mediating complement activation after endothelial oxidative stress was investigated. iC3b deposition on hypoxic (24 hours; 1% O(2))/reoxygenated (3 hours; 21% O(2)) human endothelial cells was attenuated by N-acetyl-...
