C1 inhibitor-dependent dissociation of human complement component C1 bound to immune complexes.
The interaction of C1 inhibitor with complement component C1 bound to immune complexes was examined by using 125I-labelled C1 subcomponents. The inhibitor binds rapidly to subcomponent C1s, and more slowly to subcomponent C1r. Formation of the C1r-C1 inhibitor complex causes rapid dissociation of subcomponents C1r and C1s from the antibody-antigen-component C1 aggregate. The rate and extent of ...
متن کاملPlasma levels of C1- inhibitor complexes and cleaved C1- inhibitor in patients with hereditary angioneurotic edema.
C1- inhibitor (C1(-)-Inh) catabolism in plasma of patients with hereditary angioneurotic edema (HANE) was assessed by measuring the complexes formed by C1(-)-Inh with its target proteases (C1-s, Factor XIIa, and kallikrein) and a modified (cleaved) inactive form of C1(-)-Inh (iC1(-)-Inh). This study was performed in plasma from 18 healthy subjects and 30 patients with HANE in remission: 20 with...
متن کاملAntibody-independent and -dependent opsonization of group B Streptococcus requires the first component of complement C1.
The role of the classical complement pathway and specifically the first component, C1 in antibody-independent opsonization of type Ia group B Streptococcus (GBS) was investigated. For these studies a radiolabeled bacterial uptake assay was developed that was dependent on time and bacterial concentration and that required an intact classical complement pathway. To directly investigate the role o...
متن کاملThe Fixation of Complement and the Activated First Component (c1) of Complement by Complexes Formed between Antibody and Divalent Hapten
Hapten-antibody complexes prepared at equivalence with the bivalent hapten bis-DNP-octamethylene-diamine and purified rabbit anti-DNP antibody were fractionated by Sepharose gel-filtration and the fractions examined by electron microscopy. Individual fractions were tested for whole-complement fixation and C1 fixation. Dimer forms did not show this type of biological activity, while fractions co...
متن کاملExpression of platelet C1 inhibitor.
Human platelets contain a pool of C1 inhibitor (C1 INH) distinct from that in plasma. Twelve normal platelet samples washed by centrifugation had a mean platelet C1 INH antigen level of 19.3 +/- 2.8 ng (mean +/- SEM) per 10(8) platelets. These values contrast with the mean +/- SEM platelet C1 INH antigen level of 6.1 +/- 0.9 per 10(8) platelets from 12 C1 INH-deficient patients. The level of pl...
