Elevated Plasma Complement C1Q Measured Subacutely after Traumatic Brain Injury Is Associated with Poor Functional Outcome Independent of Initial Injury Severity by Tracy Butler, Kewei Chen, Abigail Patchell, Xiangling Mao, Dikoma Shungu, Diany Paola Calderon, Jeanne T. Paz, Sudhin A. Shah

“…This study investigates the role of complement factor 1q (C1Q) in TBI recovery. Motivated by our rodent studies showing that thalamic inflammation post-TBI is dependent on C1Q and that blocking C1Q during the subacute period can prevent thalamic inflammation and improve aspects of TBI outcome, particularly sleep, we measured plasma C1Q levels 3–6 months post-injury in 27 patients with TBI ranging from complicated mild to severe, as well as 30 controls. …”

Complement 3 (C3) within the hypothalamic arcuate nucleus is a potential key mediator of the effect of enhanced nutrition on reproductive development in young bull calves by Kate Keogh, Stephen Coen, Pat Lonergan, Sean Fair, David A Kenny

“…Results Bioinformatic analyses were undertaken to determine differentially expressed transcripts (FDR < 0.1; fold change > 1.5) between the dietary treatment groups, resulting in the identification of 1 differentially expressed miRNA (miR-2419-3p) and 83 differentially expressed mRNA in the ARC region. mRNA target gene prediction identified Complement 3 (C3) as a target of miR-2419-3p, suggesting a relationship between the two transcripts. …”
