Human Properdin Released By Infiltrating Neutrophils Can Modulate Influenza A Virus Infection

The complement system is designed to recognise and eliminate invading pathogens via activation of classical, alternative and lectin pathways. Human properdin stabilises the alternative pathway C3 convertase, resulting in an amplification loop that leads to the formation of C5 convertase, thereby act...
