Long Covid patients suffer from chronic symptoms such as fatigue or shortness of breath. As researchers have discovered, this is to some extent due to a part of our immune system called the complement ...

The complement system is a key component of innate and adaptive immunity and therefore acts as a vital defense against invading pathogens. Deficiencies in the complement system are associated with ...

Changes to serum proteins could be behind the debilitating condition known as long COVID. The findings, published in the journal Science, could pave the way for diagnosing and treating the disease.

Recent clinical trials utilizing high doses of adeno-associated virus (AAV) vectors have highlighted a new challenge to AAV gene transfer—activation of the complement system. A new article in Human ...

Faults in a certain part of the immune system might be at the root of some long covid cases, new research suggests. For many people, covid is an illness that blusters in and out of our lives as cases ...

(via Kurzgesagt) One of the key players of our immune system is the complement system. An army of millions and trillions of tiny bombs, which work together in a complex and elegant dance to stop ...

Swiss scientists have identified immune system abnormalities in patients with long COVID that might open the door to new diagnostic tests and treatments. The researchers found that a group of proteins ...

The fact that the complement system is activated during immune-complex glomerular disease has been known for nearly 50 years. Detection of complement deposition in the glomerulus using immunochemistry ...
