Activated complement classical pathway in a murine model of oxygen-induced retinopathy

International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2015
AIM: To investigate whether the complement system is involved in a murine model of oxygen-induced retinopathy (OIR). METHODS: Forty C57BL/6J newborn mice were divided randomly into OIR group and control group. OIR was induced by exposing mice to 75%±2%

Classical and alternative complement pathway activation in paracoccidioidomycosis.

Journal of investigational allergology & clinical immunology, 1994
The following study presents evidence of complement activation in paracoccidioidomycosis (PCM). Twenty-eight untreated patients were studied from endemic areas of Parana in southern Brazil. The activation of the classical pathway, evaluated by the C4d/C4 ratio, was significantly elevated in the patients compared to the control population (p < 0.005 ...
