Complement and Complement Deficiencies
Seminars in Liver Disease, 1997The complement system provides a first line of defense and mediates a large variety of cellular and humoral interactions within the immune response, including chemotaxis, phagocytosis, cell adhesion, and B-cell differentiation. The system involves more than 30 serum components and numerous cell surface regulators and receptors.

Current Opinion in Immunology, 1992
Recently, a number of exciting developments have increased our understanding of complement receptors. These advances include determination of the spatial organization of the short consensus repeat unit, analysis of active sites within short consensus repeats, downregulation in vivo of the complement system by a recombinant receptor, elucidation of the ...

Complement Clauses and Complementation Strategies
1995Abstract A complement clause is a type of clause which fills an argument slot in the structure of another clause. Most languages have a restricted set of complement-taking verbs (CTVs) which may have either an NP—as in (i) and (3) from English—or a complement clause—as in (2) and (4)—corresponding to a core argument slot.

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2000
Complement is a term coined a century ago by Ehrlich and Morgenroth (1) to describe the heat-labile bactericidad activity in fresh serum that cooperates with antibody, complementing its ability to kill microbes. Since that time, our understanding of the complexities of this system of enzymes, receptors, and regulatory proteins has grown tremendously ...

Vox Sanguinis, 1998
AbstractBecause of its strong potential for generating inflammation and causing tissue destruction the complement system has to be kept strictly under control. Cells of the host need special protection against the cytolytic complement system. This paper will describe how inappropriate activation of complement in the fluid phase is prevented and how ...

Abstract With the advent of recombinant DNA methodology about 20 years ago, tremendous progress has been made in the definition of the genetic basis of the complement system. Most genes coding for complement components and related proteins have been cloned, partially or completely sequenced, their chromosomal location determined, and a ...

Immunology Today, 1981
When activated, the system of serum proteins known as complement is involved in a wide variety of responses to inflammatory and noxious stimuli. In this article Eric Brown and Michael Frank review the activation of complement by the classical and alternative pathways and discuss some of its biological effects.

Annual Review of Immunology, 1992
The complement system consists of about two dozen plasma and cell membrane proteins which function as cofactors in defense against pathogenic microbes and in the generation of many immunopathogenic disorders. The complexity of this system and its role in other biological functions has been appreciated within the last two decades. Recognition of genetic

Pediatric Clinics of North America, 2000
The complement proteins play an important role in innate immunity, promoting inflammation and microbial killing. They play a role in the adaptive immune response, as well. Inherited total deficiencies of complement proteins are extremely rare. Table 1 lists more than 40 proteins that comprise the elements of the complement system.

Proceedings of the fourteenth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing - STOC '82, 1982
This paper introduces a new class of games called symmetric complementing games. These games are interesting since their related complexity classes include many well-known graph problems: Finding minimum spanning forests; k-connectivity and k-blocks; and recognition of chordal graphs, comparability graphs, interval graphs, split graphs, permutation ...
