## Facts

| Field | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Description | This cluster of papers explores the role of the complement system in immune response, focusing on its involvement in thrombotic microangiopathies, hemolytic uremic syndrome, and inflammatory diseases. It delves into the genetics, regulation, and therapeutic interventions such as Eculizumab for managing complement-related disorders. |
