Abstract
Complement activation contributes to vascular inflammation in the contexts of allograft rejection and connective tissue disease. Here Fang et al. identify ZFYVE21 as a novel effector of Rab5 and find it regulates pro-inflammatory NF-κB signaling in endothelial cells in response to complement activation.
