C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) and primary immune complex membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis (IC-MPGN) are two rare kidney diseases. They’re both driven by activity of the complement system, which is a ...

Undertaking a study of proteins found in the complement system, an important part of the immune system, of patients with long COVID, researchers have identified a blood protein ‘signature’ that may ...

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 ...

Proteomics is the large-scale study of proteins, particularly their structures and functions. It involves the systematic identification, quantification, and analysis of the entire protein complement ...

Proteinuria affects most people with complement 3 glomerulopathy (C3G). Protein in urine is one of the strongest indicators of disease progression. Reducing proteinuria can slow the progression of C3G ...

A University of Missouri researcher has created a computer program that can unravel the mysteries of how proteins work together - giving scientists valuable insights to better prevent, diagnose and ...
