Components of the Lectin Pathway of Complement in Haematologic Malignancies.

ABSTRACT: The complement system is activated cascadically via three distinct major routes: classical pathway (CP), alternative pathway (AP) or lectin pathway (LP). The unique factors associated with the latter are collectins (mannose-binding lectin, collectin-10, collectin-11), ficolins (ficolin-1, ficolin-2, ficolin-3) and proteins of the mannose-binding lectin-associated serine protease (MASP) family (MASP-1, MASP-2, MASP-3, MAp19, MAp44). Collectins and ficolins are both pattern-recognising molecules (PRM), reactive against pathogen-associated molecular patterns (PAMP) or danger-associated molecular patterns (DAMP). The MASP family proteins were first discovered as complexes with mannose-binding lectin (MBL) and therefore named MBL-associated serine proteases, but later, they were found to interact with ficolins, and later still, collectin-10 and collectin-11. As well as proteolytic enzymes (MASP-1, MASP-2, MASP-3), the group includes non-enzymatic factors (MAp19, MAp44). In this review, the association-specific factors of the lectin pathway with haematologic malignancies and related infections are discussed.

Project description:BACKGROUND:This exploratory study investigated the time-course of lectin complement pathway (LCP) initiators in cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) and plasma in patients with subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), as well as their relationship to delayed cerebral ischemia (DCI) and functional outcome. METHODS:Concentrations of ficolin-1, ficolin-2, ficolin-3, and mannose-binding lectin (MBL) were analyzed in CSF and plasma from patients with SAH. Samples were collected daily from admission until day 9 (CSF; N_PATIENTS = 63, n_SAMPLES = 399) and day 8 (plasma; N_PATIENTS = 50, n_SAMPLES = 358), respectively. Twelve neurologically healthy patients undergoing spinal anesthesia and 12 healthy blood donors served as controls. The development of DCI during hospitalization and functional outcome at 3?months (modified Rankin Scale) were registered for patients. RESULTS:On admission, CSF levels of all LCP initiators were increased in SAH patients compared with healthy controls. Levels declined gradually over days in patients; however, a biphasic course was observed for ficolin-1. Increased CSF levels of all LCP initiators were associated with a poor functional outcome in univariate analyses. This relationship persisted for ficolin-1 and MBL in multivariate analysis after adjustments for confounders (age, sex, clinical severity, distribution and amount of blood on CT-imaging) and multiple testing (1.87?ng/mL higher in average, 95% CI, 1.17 to 2.99 and 1.69?ng/mL higher in average, 95% CI, 1.09 to 2.63, respectively). In patients who developed DCI compared with those without DCI, CSF levels of ficolin-1 and MBL tended to increase slightly more over time (p_interaction = 0.021 and 0.033, respectively); however, no association was found after adjustments for confounders and multiple testing (p-adj_interaction = 0.086 and 0.098, respectively). Plasma ficolin-1 and ficolin-3 were lower in SAH patients compared with healthy controls on all days. DCI and functional outcome were not associated with LCP initiator levels in plasma. CONCLUSION:Patients with SAH displayed elevated CSF levels of ficolin-1, ficolin-2, ficolin-3, and MBL. Increased CSF levels of ficolin-1 and MBL were associated with a poor functional outcome. TRIAL REGISTRATION:This study was a retrospective analysis of samples, which had been prospectively sampled and stored in a biobank. Registered at clinicaltrials.gov ( NCT01791257 , February 13, 2013, and NCT02320539 , December 19, 2014).
