MafB is a critical regulator of complement component C1q

Complement component C1q activates efferocytosis, suppresses inflammatory responses, and is thereby thought to limit autoimmune disease. Here, the authors show that macrophage transcription factor MafB regulates total serum levels of C1q, which contributes to preventing autoimmune disease in mice.
