摘要: 1. C3 activation products C3c and C3d can be demonstrated in gingival pocket fluid from patients with severe periodontitis. 2. Quantitatively, levels GF are comparable to attained consequent immune-complex tryptic of human serum. 3. The alternate pathway complement occurs the periodontal pocket, as by conversion proactivator (Factor B) C3-activator Bb. 4. C4 is present an altered form some, but not all, GF's. This electrophoretically similar that generated serum C1s several proteolytic enzymes.
