We are studying an unexpected role of complement – in the physiology and metabolism of pancreatic beta-cells. Surprisingly, this is related to intracellular functions of complement and therefore changes the way we perceive this “blood” system and will likely inspire discovery of many other intracellular effects of complement. We study the role of intracellular complement factor C3 and membrane bou

As a first line of defense against pathogens and a mediator between innate and adaptive immunity, complement is a particular focus of evasion strategies developed by pathogens.  We showed that one common strategy is to bind complement inhibitor C4BP, which leads to decreased opsonisation of bacteria with C3b impairing phagocytosis and allowing bacterial survival. It appears that binding of C4BP is

  Misguided or excessive complement activation is involved in many common diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis, systemic lupus erythematosus, vasculitis and age-related macula degeneration. In collaboration with clinicians we are studying molecular mechanisms of complement involvement in these diseases. Joint inflammation in rheumatoid arthritis (RA), a common chronic inflammatory disease that ca

Complement-dependent cytotoxicity is one of the mechanisms by which therapeutic monoclonal antibodies are toxic to cancer cells. Also, complement is currently undergoing re-appreciation of its role in the immune surveillance of tumors. The majority of human tumors are low immunogenic and complement may be involved in their recognition via direct “danger signal” elicited activation. This in turn at

Complement has recently gained substantial worldwide attention, as it was discovered that several common diseases such as age-related macular degeneration (blindness in elderly) are related to deregulation of the balance between complement activation and inhibition. Full complement deficiencies lead to severe infectious and autoimmune diseases but are uncommon while it appears that we are just beg
