-
this study demonstrates the role of CL-11 and the molecular mechanisms involved in modulating retinal pigment epithelial cell phagocytosis and cytokine production
-
High CLK1 expression is associated with cardiovascular disease.
-
The exclusion of the MASP1 and COLEC11 Loci in two individuals from different consanguineous families and the absence of mutations in four further individuals sequenced for both genes raises the possibility that that there is further genetic heterogeneity of 3MC syndrome
-
identify collectin CL-LK as a novel soluble C-type lectin able to bind M. tuberculosis, and characterize mycobacterial mannose-capped lipoarabinomannan as a primary ligand for CL-LK
-
Data indicate differences in the plasma concentrations of collectin liver 1 and collectin kidney 1, M-ficolin and H-ficol in systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) patients compared to a group of healthy controls.
-
promoter polymorphism COLEC11-9570C>T (rs3820897) was associated with decreased levels of CL-K1.
-
the sugar specificity of CL-K1 was established.
-
These results suggest that specific diseases may affect CL-K1 synthesis in an organ dependent manner and that elevated plasma CL-K1 levels are associated with the presence of DIC.
-
Most plasma CL-K1 was found in complex with CL-L1 in a ratio suggesting a heteromeric subunit of 1 CL-L1 & 2 CL-K1 polypeptides. It associated with MASPs 1, 2 & 3. On binding mannan or DNA in the presence of MASP-2, the complex deposited C4b.
-
Data suggest that collectin 11 (CL-11), e.g. via complement, may play a role in response to particles and surfaces presenting extracellular DNA, such as apopototic cells.
-
collectin-11 associates with all the known MBL-associated serine proteases (MASP-1, MASP-2 and MASP-3) as well as the lectin complement pathway regulator MAP-1.
-
Data show that the concentration of collectin kidney 1 (CL-K1, COLEC11) in plasma was 0.34 +/- 0.13 microg/ml and that in mannan-binding lectin (MBL) was 1.72 +/- 1.51 microg/ml.
-
these findings demonstrate a role for complement pathway factors in fundamental developmental processes and in the etiology of 3MC syndrome.
-
CL-11 plays a role in activation of the complement system and in the defense against invading microorganisms
