Level of complement activity and components C1, C4, C2, and C3 in complement response to bacterial challenge in malnourished rats.
In experimentally induced malnutrition in rats, there was no significant difference between the measured level of complement activity of the classical pathway (50% hemolytic complement [CH50]) and that of the alternative pathway (ACH50), although the levels of complement components C1, C4, C2, and C3 were depressed significantly. The complement activity showed a temporary elevation with a peak ...
متن کاملC3 and C4 Complement Levels in Iron Deficiency Anemia
Background and Objectives: Complement proteins are some of the most important plasma proteins of the innate immune system. Impaired immune function is reported in subjects who are iron deficient, and there are documents that these patients are prone to infection. This study was conducted to show whether serum C3 and C4 complement change in adult nonpregnant female with iron deficient anemia or ...

متن کاملComplement C3 and C4 and Metabolic Syndrome
The complement system is part of the innate immune system and plays a role in regulating inflammation. Increased inflammation is engaged in the development of adult cardiometabolic diseases such as insulin resistance, dyslipidemia, atherosclerosis, and hypertension. Adipose tissue not only produces complement but is also a potential target for complement activity. Obese adults and adults with c...
متن کاملComplement components (C1, C2, C3, C4) in bronchial secretions after intranasal infection of guinea pigs with Mycoplasma pneumoniae: dissociation of unspecific and specific defense mechanisms.
Shortly after intranasal infection of guinea pigs with Mycoplasma pneumoniae, the titers of the complement components increased significantly in bronchial secretions by the folllowing amounts, compared with the titer of a control group: C1, about 2-fold; C2, 1.6-fold; C3, 17-fold; and C4, 942-fold. Histopathological signs of inflammation were not apparent at this time. At 2 weeks after infectio...
