About This Section

EntrezGene summary for CFH:
This gene is a member of the Regulator of Complement Activation (RCA) gene cluster and encodes a
protein with twenty short concensus repeat (SCR) domains. This protein is secreted into the
bloodstream and has an essential role in the regulation of complement activation, restricting this
innate defense mechanism to microbial infections. Mutations in this gene have been associated with
hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) and chronic hypocomplementemic nephropathy. Alternate
transcriptional splice variants, encoding different isoforms, have been characterized. [provided
by RefSeq]

UniProtKB/Swiss-Prot: CFAH_HUMAN, P08603
Function: Factor H functions as a cofactor in the inactivation of C3b by factor I and also
increases the rate of dissociation of the C3bBb complex (C3 convertase) and the (C3b)NBB complex
(C5 convertase) in the alternative complement pathway

  • Genetic variations in CFH are associated with basal laminar drusen [MIM:126700]; also
    known as drusen of Bruch membrane or cuticular drusen or grouped early adult-onset drusen. Drusen
    are extracellular deposits that accumulate below the retinal pigment epithelium on Bruch membrane.
    Basal laminar drusen refers to an early adult-onset drusen phenotype that shows a pattern of
    uniform small, slightly raised yellow subretinal nodules randomly scattered in the macula. In
    later stages, these drusen often become more numerous, with clustered groups of drusen scattered
    throughout the retina. In time these small basal laminar drusen may expand and ultimately lead to
    a serous pigment epithelial detachment of the macula that may result in vision loss
  • Defects in CFH are the cause of complement factor H deficiency (CFH deficiency)
    [MIM:609814]. CFH deficiency determines uncontrolled activation of the alternative complement
    pathway with consumption of C3 and often other terminal complement components. It is associated
    with a number of renal diseases with variable clinical presentation and progression, including
    membranoproliferative glomerulonephritis and atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome. CFH deficiency
    patients may show increased susceptibility to meningococcal infections
  • Defects in CFH are a cause of hemolytic-uremic syndrome (HUS) [MIM:235400]. HUS is a
    microvasculature disorder leading to microangiopathic hemolytic anemia associated with distorted
    erythrocytes ('burr cells'), thrombocytopenia, and acute renal failure. Both dominant and
    recessive modes of inheritance have been reported. Most cases of HUS are associated with epidemics
    of diarrhea caused by verocytotoxin-producing bacteria, but atypical cases of HUS not associated
    with diarrhea (aHUS) also occur
  • Genetic variation in CFH is associated with age-related macular degeneration type 4
    (ARMD4) [MIM:610698]. ARMD is a multifactorial eye disease and the most common cause of
    irreversible vision loss in the developed world. In most patients, the disease is manifest as
    ophthalmoscopically visible yellowish accumulations of protein and lipid (known as drusen) that
    lie beneath the retinal pigment epithelium and within an elastin-containing structure known as
    Bruch membrane
