| 1 | We conclude that (i) CRP can sensitize appropriate liposomes for complement-dependent damage via the primary complement pathway starting at the level of C1q; (ii) of those studied, liposomes that are most susceptible to membrane damage contain phosphatidylcholine, have a positive charge, and contain a ceramide glycolipid; and (iii) such liposomes also are sensitive, although to a much lesser degree, to complement-dependent lysis initiated in the absence of CRP and involving consumption of terminal in excess of early acting complement components. | Phosphatidylcholines | C-reactive protein | Homo sapiens |
