AlternativeComplementPathway

The complement system of plasma proteins is an important part of the immune system that forms a cascade of factors that lyses foreign cells. There are two branches of the complement system, the classical pathway that is initiated by antibody-antigen complexes on a cell and the alternative pathway that is antibody independent. The ultimate result in either pathway is the creation of the membrane attack complex, a larg......阅读全文

补体结合反应(complement-fixation-test)技术概况

可溶性抗原,如蛋白质、多糖、类脂质和病毒等,与相应抗体结合后,抗原抗体复合物可以结合补体,但这一反应肉眼不能察觉,如再加入红细胞和溶血素,即可根据是否出现溶血反应来判定反应系统中是否存在相应的抗原或抗体。这个反应就是补体结合反应。 补体结合反应是一种古老的血清学技术,Bordet和Gengou在19
