  1. Complement Abdul Ghaffar Microbiology and Immunology

  2. Complement:history Discovered in 1894 by Bordet It represents lytic activity of fresh serum Its lytic activity destroyed when heated at 56C for 30 min

  3. Complement functions • Host benefit: • opsonization to enhance phagocytosis • phagocyte attraction and activation • lysis of bacteria and infected cells • regulation of antibody responses • clearance of immune complexes • clearance of apoptic cells • Host detriment: • Inflammation, anaphylaxis

  4. Definitions • C-activation: alteration of C proteins such that they interact with the next component • C-fixation: utilization of C by Ag-Ab complexes • Hemolytic units (CH50): dilution of serum which lyses 50% of Ab-coated r.b.c in a suspension • C-inactivation: denaturation (usually by heat) of an early C-component resulting in loss of hemolytic activity • Convertase/esterase: altered C-protein which acts as a proteolytic enzyme for another C-component

  5. Proteins of the complementsystem (nomenclature) • C1(qrs), C2, C3, C4, C5, C6, C7, C8, C9 • factors B, D, H and I, properdin (P) • mannose binding lectin (MBL), MBL associated serine proteases (MASP-1 MASP-2) • C1 inhibitor (C1-INH, serpin), C4-binding protein (C4-BP), decay accelerating factor (DAF), • C1 receptor (CR1), protein-S (vitronectin)

  6. Activated component are usually over-lined: e.g. C1qrs Activation product of complement proteins (nomenclature) When enzymatically cleaved, the larger moiety, binds to the activation complex or membrane and the smaller peptide is released in the microenvironment Letter “b” is usually added to the larger,membrane-binding, peptide and “a” to the smaller peptide (e.g., C3b/C3a, C4b/C4a, C5b/C5a), EXCEPT C2 (the larger, membrane-binding moiety is C2a; the smaller on is C2b)
