Three pathways have now been described in the complement system — the classic, alternative and lectin. A fourth, lytic pathway is added by some authors for membrane attack complex.

In this article, ACROBiosystems discusses how the complement cascade and it's various components could potentially be leveraged for therapeutic potential in COVID-19, cancer and general inflammation.

The findings suggest a dysregulation of the complement pathway, a part of the immune system, and the blood clotting pathways in individuals with long COVID at six months.

Complement inhibition is the best approach to managing PNH, in that PNH-related hemolysis is modulated in large part by the alternative complement pathway, which acts as a amplification loop for ...

When comparing the SARS-CoV-2-induced pathways across collected samples, they found 4 of 14 pathways were related to the complement system.

Blocking these pathways using the cancer chemotherapy drug ruxolitinib helped normalize expression of complement and IFN-controlling genes in human lung epithelial cell lines.

The complement system is one of the oldest systems in our body, it’s part of the innate immune system, and there are 3 pathways. There’s the lectin, the classical, and the alternative pathway.

Researchers have pinpointed a brain protein that could offer a fresh target in the battle against Alzheimer's.
