Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Structure:** The C1QB gene encodes a single-chain variable region (SCV) of the B subunit of the C1q complex, which is composed of three heavy chains (α, β, and γ) and three light chains (β, β, and β). 2. **Function:** The C1QB protein is a key component of the C1q complex, which recognizes and binds to antibody-coated pathogens, marking them for destruction. This process is crucial for eliminating pathogens and preventing tissue damage. 3. **Expression:** The C1QB gene is widely expressed in various cell types, including lung macrophages, Kupffer cells, alveolar macrophages, eurydendroid cells, Hofbauer cells, mature microglial cells, capillary endothelial cells, CD1c-positive myeloid dendritic cells, and central nervous system macrophages. 4. **Regulation:** The C1QB gene is subject to various regulatory mechanisms, including transcriptional and post-transcriptional control, which ensures its proper expression and function in different cell types and immune responses. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Classical Complement Activation:** The C1QB protein participates in the classical pathway of complement activation, which is triggered by the binding of C1q to antibody-coated pathogens. This pathway leads to the formation of the C3 convertase, which cleaves C3 and activates the complement cascade. 2. **Immune System Regulation:** The C1QB protein plays a critical role in regulating the immune response by modulating the activity of various immune cells, including macrophages, dendritic cells, and endothelial cells. 3. **Innate Immunity:** The C1QB gene is involved in the innate immune response, which provides the first line of defense against pathogens. The C1QB protein helps to eliminate pathogens and prevent tissue damage by activating the complement cascade and modulating the activity of immune cells. 4. **Tissue Homeostasis:** The C1QB gene is also involved in maintaining tissue homeostasis by regulating the activity of immune cells and preventing excessive inflammation. **Clinical Significance:** Dysregulation of the C1QB gene has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Autoimmune Disorders:** Mutations in the C1QB gene have been associated with autoimmune disorders, such as systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and rheumatoid arthritis (RA). 2. **Inflammatory Diseases:** Dysregulation of the C1QB gene has been linked to inflammatory diseases, such as atherosclerosis and multiple sclerosis. 3. **Cancer:** The C1QB gene has been implicated in cancer progression, as it helps to regulate the activity of immune cells and prevent tumor growth. In conclusion, the C1QB gene plays a critical role in the innate immune system by participating in the classical pathway of complement activation and regulating the activity of immune cells. Dysregulation of this gene has been implicated in various diseases, highlighting the importance of understanding its functions and mechanisms of regulation.
