Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is the most common cause of visual loss in developed countries, with a signifcant economic and social burden on public health. Although genome-wide and gene-candidate studies have been enabled to identify genetic variants in the complement system associated with AMD pathogenesis, the efect of gene-environment interaction is still under debate. In this review we provide an overview of the role of complement system and its genetic variants in AMD, summarizing the consequences of the interaction between genetic and environmental risk factors on AMD onset, progression, and therapeutic response. Finally, we discuss the perspectives of current evidence in the feld of genomics driven personalized medicine and public health.

  • Complement Component 2 Deficiency
    Complement component 2 deficiency Description Complement component 2 deficiency is a disorder that causes the immune system to malfunction, resulting in a form of immunodeficiency. Immunodeficiencies are conditions in which the immune system is not able to protect the body effectively from foreign invaders such as bacteria and viruses. People with complement component 2 deficiency have a significantly increased risk of recurrent bacterial infections, specifically of the lungs (pneumonia), the membrane covering the brain and spinal cord (meningitis), and the blood (sepsis), which may be life-threatening. These infections most commonly occur in infancy and childhood and become less frequent in adolescence and adulthood. Complement component 2 deficiency is also associated with an increased risk of developing autoimmune disorders such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) or vasculitis. Autoimmune disorders occur when the immune system malfunctions and attacks the body's tissues and organs. Between 10 and 20 percent of individuals with complement component 2 deficiency develop SLE. Females with complement component 2 deficiency are more likely to have SLE than affected males, but this is also true of SLE in the general population. The severity of complement component 2 deficiency varies widely. While some affected individuals experience recurrent infections and other immune system difficulties, others do not have any health problems related to the disorder. Frequency In Western countries, complement component 2 deficiency is estimated to affect 1 in 20, 000 individuals; its prevalence in other areas of the world is unknown. Causes Complement component 2 deficiency is caused by mutations in the C2 gene. This gene provides instructions for making the complement component 2 protein, which helps regulate a part of the body's immune response known as the complement system.

Its cytoprotective role is mainly attributed to its enzymatic activity, which involves the degradation of heme to biliverdin with simultaneous release of carbon monoxide (CO). Recent studies uncovered a new cytoprotective role for heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) by identifying a regulatory role on the complement control protein decay-accelerating factor. This is a key complement regulatory protein preventing dysregulation or overactivation of complement cascades that can cause kidney injury. Cell-specific targeting of HO-1 induction may, therefore, be a novel approach to attenuate complement-dependent forms of kidney disease. Keywords: heme; heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1); complement; kidney injury 1. Introduction Citation: Detsika, M.G.; Lianos, E.A. Although the role of heme, in various cellular processes, such as gene transcription Regulation of Complement and translation and cellular differentiation, proliferation, and apoptosis, has been known Activation by Heme Oxygenase-1 for decades, the role of the heme-degrading enzyme heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) only gained (HO-1) in Kidney Injury.

  • Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cell–Derived Podocytes Mature Into Vascularized Glomeruli Upon Experimental Transplantation

Glomerular development has been analyzed mainly in mice, whereas analysis of human kidney development has been minimal because of limited access to embryonic kidneys. We previously reported the induction of three-dimensional primordial glomeruli from human induced pluripotent stem (iPS) cells. Here, using transcription activator–like effector nuclease-mediated homologous recombination, we generated human iPS cell lines that express green fluorescent protein (GFP) in the NPHS1 locus, which encodes nephrin, and we show that GFP expression facilitated accurate visualization of nephrin-positive podocyte formation in

  • Comprehensive Genetic Analysis of Complement and Coagulation Genes in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome
    BASIC RESEARCH www.jasn.org Comprehensive Genetic Analysis of Complement and Coagulation Genes in Atypical Hemolytic Uremic Syndrome † † † ‡ † Fengxiao Bu,* Tara Maga,* Nicole C. Meyer, Kai Wang, Christie P. Thomas, § † † Carla M. Nester, § and Richard J. H. Smith* § *Interdisciplinary PhD Program in Genetics, †Molecular Otolaryngology and Renal Research Laboratories, ‡Department of Biostatistics, College of Public Health, and §Rare Renal Disease Clinic, Departments of Pediatrics and Internal Medicine, Carver College of Medicine, University of Iowa, Iowa City, Iowa ABSTRACT Atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) is a thrombotic microangiopathy caused by uncontrolled activation of the alternative pathway of complement at the cell surface level that leads to microangiopathic hemolytic anemia, thrombocytopenia, and acute kidney failure. In approximately one half of affected patients, pathogenic loss-of-function variants in regulators of complement or gain-of-function variants in effectors of complement are identified, clearly implicating complement in aHUS. However, there are strong lines of evidence supporting the presence of additional genetic contributions to this disease. To identify novel aHUS-associated genes, we completed a comprehensive screen of the complement and coagulation pathways in 36 patients with sporadic aHUS using targeted genomic enrichment and mas- sively parallel sequencing. After variant calling, quality control, and hard filtering, we identified 84 reported or novel nonsynonymous variants, 22 of which have been previously associated with disease. Using computational prediction methods, 20 of the remaining 62 variants were predicted to be dele- terious. Consistent with published data, nearly one half of these 42 variants (19; 45%) were found in genes implicated in the pathogenesis of aHUS. Several genes in the coagulation pathway were also identified as important in the pathogenesis of aHUS.

  • Smac Mimetic Induces Cell Death in a Large Proportion of Primary Acute Myeloid Leukemia Samples, Which Correlates with Defined Molecular Markers

Smac mimetics that antagonize Inhibitor of Apoptosis (IAP) proteins have so far largely been investigated in acute myeloid leukemia (AML) cell lines; however, little is yet known on the therapeutic potential of Smac mimetics in primary AML samples. In this study, we therefore investigated the antileukemic activity of the Smac mimetic BV6 in diagnostic samples of 67 adult AML patients and correlated the response to clinical, cytogenetic and molecular markers and gene expression profiles. Treatment with cytarabine (ara-C) was used as a standard chemotherapeutic agent. Interestingly, about half (51%) of primary AML samples are sensitive to BV6 and 21% intermediate responsive, while 28% are resistant.
