The classical complement pathway typically requires antigen—antibody complexes (immune complexes) for activation (specific immune response), whereas the alternative pathway can be activated by C3 ...

The classical pathway is activated by C1q-mediated recognition of the target. Further activation of this pathway causes C4b and its cleavage product iC4b to accumulate in the tissues. C4b binds to ...

Conclusion Classical pathway of the C system is activated in patients with RA. Its serum components and functional assay are associated with disease activity and several disease-related data. Moreover ...

The complement system is an important antimicrobial and inflammation-generating component of the innate immune system. The classical pathway of complement is activated upon binding of the 774-kDa C ...

Through its three pathways, represented by the classical, alternative, and lectin pathways, the complement system forms a tightly regulated network of soluble proteins, membrane-expressed receptors, ...

The complement system, which consists of more than 30 plasma and cell-surface proteins, is activated by three pathways — the classical, lectin and alternative pathways — which lead to the ...
