Complement Testing

Blood, urine sC5b-9, C5a, C3, FB, C3NeF, FH, anti-FH Ab, FI, Ba, C3a and other complement-related directions. Specific sample types and indicator combinations are confirmed by project.

COMPLEMENT PATHWAYS

In the complement pathway, find where to detect

The three activation pathways converge at C3 and C5, and then enter the terminal pathway. The turquoise “test” mark corresponds to AlloDx’s complement-related test items.

Complement pathway and detection items: FB and Ba are located in the alternative pathway activation link, C3NeF acts on the alternative pathway C3 convertase; FH, FI and anti-FH Ab are marked in the alternative pathway regulatory region; C3 and C3a are located in the C3 cleavage link, C5a is located in the C5 cleavage link, and sC5b-9 is located in the soluble terminal complex branch.Open large image ↗
The pathway is a simplified diagram, with some intermediate steps and regulatory molecules omitted; arrows indicate reaction directions, and dotted lines indicate regulation or correlation. C4b2a uses common traditional naming. sC5b-9 is expressed separately from membrane-bound MAC.

  • C3、FB:Complement component; FB participates in alternative C3 convertase formation.
  • C3a、C5a、Ba:Corresponding to the activated fragments produced by C3, C5, and FB cleavage, respectively.
  • C3NeF:Autoantibodies associated with the stability of alternative C3 convertase.
  • FH、FI、anti-FH Ab:Regulators of alternative pathways and anti-FH autoantibodies.
  • sC5b-9:Soluble terminal complement complex, with blood and urine related testing items.

Please confirm with the AlloDx technical team for the sample requirements, testing methods and combinations of each project.
