10 Complement regulation Factor H CR1 CD59 CR1 (CD35) MCP (CD46) Factor I MCP DAF Endothelial cells DAF (CD55) C3 convertase C5 convertase MAC CFH CFI MCP DAF CR1 CD59

11 Factor H : First regulatory protein of AP Single polypeptide chain plasma glycoprotein; 155 kda 20 complement control protein modules (CCP/SCR) 60 aminoacids Functional domains Two major distinct binding sites Two separate binding sites for heparin GAG 7 19 Factor B Morgan et al., Nat. Struc. Mol. Biol 2010 Preventing AP activation through binding to host cell membranes

14 Role of complement in physiology Constant low level of complement activation Prevention of any amplification Limited complement response Regulators From Ricklin et al, Nature Immunol review, 2010

15 Danger signaling Complement and altered self REG Complement REG REG Cancer cell Normal cell Apoptotic cell Endothelial damage Endothelium is damaged by complement Damaged endothelium activates complement

16 Restricted protection for Red blood cells CD59 CR1 (CD35) CD59 CR1 (CD35) DAF (CD55) MCP (CD46) DAF (CD55) DAF and MCP protects cells by patrolling the surfaces and inactivating

17 Paroxysmal Nocturnal Haemoglobinuria Lack of expression of the GPI-anchored proteins on haematopoietic cells No CD59 and No CD55 on red blood cells Normal red blood cells are protected from complement attack by a shield of terminal complement inhibitors Without this protective complement inhibitor shield, PNH red blood cells are destroyed No CD59, no CD55 Complement Activation Intact RBC Anemia Hemoglobinuria Lack of complement regulation renders the cells extremely sensitive to complement mediated lysis

18 Beltrame et al, 2015 Biological functions of the complement system

19 Complement as a first line of defense against Pathogens AP Strong C response in cases of microbial intruders; No regulators C3(H20) Constitutive activation Microbes with terminal mannose groups L P MBL and Ficolins B Bb Cell lysis Trigger inflammation Promote the attachment of antigens to phagocytes The association of complement deficiencies with recurrent bacterial infections occurs predominantly with components of the AP (C3, Properdine, Factor I) and C5 to C8 Streptococcus pneumonia, Neisseria meningitidis

The efficacy of vaccine in C deficient individuals has not been well evaluated (only opsonophagocytic protection)

22 Pathological activation of Complement Ie Age related effects, excessive acute or chronic tissue damage, biomaterials or transplants Imbalance between activation and regulation lead to an attack on host cells and trigger immune and inflammatory disaeses. From Ricklin et al, Nature Immunol review, 2010

23 Major mechanisms of the pathogenic involvement of complement in systemic and local disorders Rickling et al, 2017

24 Complement plays dual roles in the pathogenesis of SLE Protective features in that hereditary homozygous deficiencies of classical pathway components, such as C1q and C4, are associated with an increased risk for SLE. IC-mediated activation of complement in affected tissues On plasma Consomption of C3 and C4 levels On cells Low levels of CR1:proteolysis C3a, C5a C4b On tissues IC can not be eliminated Deposits of Ig and C Inflammation Cellular activation Complement activation in SLE has been viewed as a major cause of tissue injury 24

25 Acute Humoral Rejection : activation of complement at the site of tissu injury Anti HLA Class I Transplant Endothelium C1q + C4, C2 + + C 3 C5 C4d deposited at site of complement activation C 3b C3a / C5a MAC Endothelium destroyed Neutrophils in peritubular capillaries Arterial fibrinoid necrosis Acute tubular injury C4d C5-C9

26 The prototype of complement mediated disaese: Atypical HUS and C3 Glomerulopathy Atypical HUS C3G All age Mecanic anemia, thrombocytopenia and acute renal failure The outcome is variable : Severe with ESRD after the first episode (50% of cases) Early or late recurrences Complete remission mainly affects adolescents and adults Chronic progressive renal disease that is diagnosed on the basis of renal histological features Half of the patients present with nephrotic syndrome, the others with mild proteinuria, ESRD in 50% of cases after 10y Sporadic and less frequently familial forms (10%) Unfavourable prognosis Recurrence after renal transplantation with a possible phenotype switch : 26
