Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1989
Fast-migrating C3c, a sensitive index of complement activation, was assayed in the plasma of 2 myasthenia gravis (MG) patients in crisis who received high-dose IV immunoglobulin therapy. Dramatic responses were observed in both patients. Clinical improvement paralleled a decrement in C3c levels, suggesting that regulation of complement activation may ...

Journal of Immunological Methods, 1983
An intermediate gel rocket immunoelectrophoresis (IRI) suitable for direct quantitation of complement split products with C3c specificity is described. The technique represents a simple, quick, and reproducible method for the assessment of complement activity in biological fluids in diseases.

A simple method for preparation of C3c fragment from trypsinized serum‐ reacted zymosan
Transfusion, 1980 A simple method for preparing relatively pure C3c fragment from serum‐ reacted zymosan is described. Although hyperimmunization studies indicate contamination of the “C3c” product by C3d and immunoglobulin antigenic materials, these are present in such small amounts that they do not impair the effectiveness of the product as a reagent for absorbing ...

Plasma C3c in immune-mediated neurological diseases: a preliminary report
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 1991Plasma C3c levels were examined in 56 patients with immune (27) and non-immune (29) mediated neurological diseases by crossed immunoelectrophoresis. Plasma samples were collected during the active phase of illness in both groups, usually within 7 days of admission.

Significance of Glomerular Deposition of C3c and C3d in IgA Nephropathy
American Journal of Nephrology, 2000<i>Background:</i> Complement activation plays an important role in the pathogenesis of IgA nephropathy. The clinico-pathological significance of the glomerular deposition of complement breakdown products, C3c and C3d in IgA nephropathy remains to be clarified.

C3c-binding in inflammatory rheumatic diseases.
Clinical and experimental rheumatology, 1985Sera from 73 patients, 24 with rheumatoid arthritis (RA), 10 with Sjögren's syndrome (SS, 4 with and six without RA), 17 with Reiter's syndrome (RS), 10 with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), 9 with Yersinia arthritis (YA), and 3 with mixed connective tissue disease (MCTD) were examined by enzyme-immunoassay (EIA) for the presence of C3c-binding IgG,

Circulating C3, C4, and C3 Split Products (C3c and C3d) During Normal Pregnancy*
American Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 1982ABSTRACT: The plasma concentrations of the complement components C3 and C4, as well as the split products C3c and C3d, were measured before, during, and after normal pregnancy. Significantly increased values were observed in the C3 and C3d levels in the second and third trimesters of pregnancy.

High levels of C3c in the cerebrospinal fluid from amyotrophic lateral sclerosis patients
Acta Neurologica Scandinavica, 2009A study of several parameters of the humoral immunity in the serum and the cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) of thirteen Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS) patients was carried out. A significant increase in CSF C3c was shown. This feature was found to be significantly correlated to the CSF albumin/serum albumin ration (r = 0.70; p less than 0.05) and to the ...

IUD-induced changes in cervical secretion content of albumin, IgG and complement C3c
Contraception, 1984Cervical secretion albumin, IgG, complement C3c, spinnbarkeit and amount of wet weight mucus recovered were analyzed in a group of 13 women using IUD as a contraceptive method and the results were compared to those obtained in a control group. Significant differences were obtained when concentrations and amounts of soluble proteins in the respective ...

C3c and C3d fragments of human C3 bind myeloma IgG1 and IgG3 proteins
Immunology Letters, 1982Eight human myeloma proteins, two of each IgG subclass, were studied for binding to solid-phase C3c and C3d by the ELISA technique. Myeloma IgG1 kappa, IgG1 lambda, IgG3 kappa and IgG3 lambda proteins bound to C3c and C3d, while two IgG2 kappa, and two IgG4 kappa proteins failed to show significant binding affinity.
