Complement Activation via the Lectin and Alternative Pathway in Patients With Severe COVID-19
Frontiers in Immunology, 2022 Complement plays an important role in the direct defense to pathogens, but can also activate immune cells and the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines. However, in critically ill patients with COVID-19 the immune system is inadequately activated leading
