Altered complement component C3A (beta-1C--beta-1A) in patients with glomerulonephritis

Altered complement component C3A (beta-1C--beta-1A) in patients with glomerulonephritis

J F Soothill. Clin Exp Immunol. 1967 Jan.

Abstract

1. The altered form of the complement component C'3A(β1C–β1A) was found in the fresh plasma of patients with acute glomerulo-nephritis (with or without low complement levels), and some patients with nephrotic syndrome due to proliferative glomerulonephritis and membranous glomerulonephritis.

2. This provides direct evidence that the complement has been involved in an immunological reaction.

3. The possible practical implications are discussed.
