Mechanisms of evasion of complement by Porphyromonas gingivalis

Frontiers in Bioscience, 2008
The complement system is an important host response to invading bacteria. Activation leads to deposition on the bacterial surface of C3b and its' inactivation products and phagocytosis of the opsonised bacteria by host cells. Alternatively the entire complement pathway including terminal components C5b-9 may be activated on the cell surface which gives

Microbial Evasion of Complement-Mediated Clearance

Journal of Liposome Research, 1996
AbstractThe success of microorganisms as pathogens in the vertebrate host depends, in part, on their ability to evade detection and elimination by intrinsic and acquired immune defenses. Instrinsic defense mechanisms are those components of the immune system that eliminate foreign invaders without the requirement of previous exposure to the ...

Complement Regulation and Immune Evasion by Hepatitis C Virus

2018
A prominent role for complement has been identified in the linkage of innate and adaptive immunity. The liver is the main source of complement and hepatocytes are the primary sites for synthesis of complement components in vivo. We have discovered that hepatitis C virus (HCV) impairs C4 and C3 synthesis. Liver damage may diminish capacity of complement
