Effect of C3 Inactivator on Bound C3 Antigen

The Journal of Immunology, 1972
Abstract The effect of C3 inactivator (C3ina) in human EDTA plasma on C3 antigen bound to various immune complexes was determined. C3ina greatly decreased the amount of C3 bound to human erythrocytes sensitized with IgM anti-I cold agglutinin, and also decreased erythrocyte-bound C3 of a patient with deficiency of C3 inactivator, but had

Homozygous C3 deficiency: Detection of C3 by radioimmunoassay

Clinical Immunology and Immunopathology, 1977
Abstract A 5 10 12 - year-old girl with recurrent infections was found to have homozygous C3 deficiency. Family studies demonstrated that the pattern of inheritance was consistent with that of an autosomal codominant trait. C3 levels have ranged from 5 mg/100 ml (electroimmunoassay) to 1.7 μg/100 ml (radioimmunoassay) 2 years later.

C3 Glomerulopathy

2013
C3 glomerulopathy is a recent disease classification comprising several rare types of glomerulonephritis, including dense deposit disease (DDD) and C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN). The most common histological feature in these diseases is the presence of glomerular deposition of C3 within the mesangium and along the glomerular basement membrane (GBM) in ...

Inherited complement C3 deficiency: A defect in C3 secretion

European Journal of Immunology, 1994
AbstractThe molecular basis of inherited complement C3 deficiency in a 20‐year‐old newly diagnosed male patient was studied. Using an enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay, the patient's C3 serum level was found to be approximately 7 μg/ml, which is less than 1 % of normal.

C3 nephritic factor associated with C3 glomerulopathy in children

Pediatric Nephrology, 2013
C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is characterized by predominant C3 deposits in glomeruli and dysregulation of the alternative pathway of complement. Half of C3G patients have a C3 nephritic factor (C3NeF). C3G incorporated entities with a range of features on microscopy including dense deposit diseases (DDD) and C3 glomerulonephritis (C3GN).

C3 Variants in Japanese

Human Heredity, 1985
By high-voltage agarose gel electrophoresis, seven phenotypes of C3 were found in Japanese. The allele frequencies for C3*S, C3*S025, C3*S02, C3*F, C3*F06, C3*F065, and C3*F08 were 0.9943, 0.0003, 0.0003, 0.0006, 0.0003, 0.0021, and 0.0021, respectively.

Biotinylation of human C3

Molecular Immunology, 1982
Purified human C3 was biotinylated using the biotinyl-N-hydroxysuccinimide imidoester (BNHS). Depending on the input of BNHS, from three to six molecules of biotin were incorporated per C3 molecule. The biotinyl-C3 retained over 90% of its specific hemolytic activity and when bound to sheep erythrocytes maintained its ability to adhere to human C3b ...

C3 photosynthesis in silico

Photosynthesis Research, 2006
A computer model comprising light reactions, electron-proton transport, enzymatic reactions, and regulatory functions of C3 photosynthesis has been developed as a system of differential budget equations for intermediate compounds. The emphasis is on electron transport through PSII and PSI and on the modeling of Chl fluorescence and 810 nm absorptance ...

Inhibitor of Human C3 Associated with Preparations of C3 Dissociated from C3-Zymosan Complex

The Journal of Immunology, 1969
Abstract Incubation of human serum with zymosan at 37°C, followed by removal of the zymosan residue by centrifugation, resulted in C3-zymosan complex. The C3-zymosan complex could be dissociated and C3 recovered in the eluate. Preparations of dissociated C3 did not contain the hemolytically active component of complement, C1 esterase, or

C3 concentrations can be normal in patients with C3 glomerulopathy secondary to C3 nephritic factor

Journal of Clinical Pathology
C3 glomerulopathy (C3G) is a rare kidney disease caused by the glomerular deposition of C3 fragments secondary to alternative pathway complement dysregulation. C3 nephritic factors (C3Nef) are the most common acquired cause, and their detection has treatment and prognostic implications.
