Background
Complement Factor H (CFH) is a critical regulatory glycoprotein of the innate immune system's complement cascade, specifically the alternative pathway. Produced primarily in the liver, it circulates in the blood and is also synthesized locally by various cell types, including retinal pigment epithelial cells. Its essential function is to protect host tissues from inappropriate complement-mediated attack. CFH acts as a cofactor for the inactivation of C3b, accelerates the decay of the C3 convertase enzyme complex, and binds to host cell surfaces. This binding is crucial for distinguishing "self" from "non-self," preventing damage to healthy human cells. Dysregulation or deficiency of CFH is strongly linked to several diseases, most notably age-related macular degeneration (AMD) and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS).
