Antibody-mediated activation of the classical pathway of complement may compensate for mannose-binding lectin deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Immunology, 2004
AbstractDeficiency of mannose‐binding lectin (MBL), a recognition molecule of the lectin pathway of complement, is associated with increased susceptibility to infections. The high frequency of MBL deficiency suggests that defective MBL‐mediated innate immunity can be compensated by alternative defense strategies.

Functional analysis of the mannose-binding lectin complement pathway in normal pregnancy and preeclampsia

Journal of Reproductive Immunology, 2010
Preeclampsia is a severe complication of pregnancy characterized by hypertension and proteinuria developing after midgestation. Previous studies have shown increased complement activation in normal and preeclamptic pregnancies. We aimed to investigate the role of the mannose-binding lectin pathway in the initiation of pathological complement activation
