The contribution of the alternative pathway in complement activation on cell surfaces depends on the strength of classical pathway initiation

Abstract Objectives The complement system is an important component of innate immunity. The alternative pathway (AP) amplification loop is considered an essential feed forward mechanism for complement activation. However, the role of the AP in classical pathway (CP) activation has only been studied...
