HISTORICAL BACKGROUND OF
COMPLEMENT
1894: Discovered by Jules Bordet as a heat-
labile serum factor responsible for bacterial
lysis.
Heating at 56°C for 30 min destroys its activity,
showing it differs from heat-stable antibodies.

INTRODUCTION
•The complement system is an integral part of innate
immune response and act as the bridge between and
innate and acquired immunity .
•It consists of series of proteins that mostly synthesis in
liver and other cell and organs such as (macrophages ,
endothelial cell and , spleen ) produce complement
proteins locally.
•Exist in plasma and cell surfaces as inactive precursors
(Zymogens).
•The complement is consists of approximately 20
proteins.

Complement proteins act in a cascade: the first
protein is activated by a trigger (like an antibody
or pathogen), which then activates the next
protein, and so on, leading to a chain reaction that
enhances immune defense.

CLASSIC PATHWAY
Classical pathway activation: by antigen–antibody complexes (IgM or
clustered IgG 3and 1) via C1q.
C1 activation: C1q bind to fc region in Ig make him apple to bind with
both c1r and c1s (c1 complex) .
C1 complex : cleave c4 and c2 to c4a and c4b، c2 to c2a ،c2b.
C3 convertase formation: C4bC2a.
C3 cleavage: C3 →C3a + C3b.
C5 convertase formation: C4bC2a + C3b →C4bC2aC3b, which
cleaves C5 →C5a + C5b.
MAC initiation: C5b binds C6, C7, and C8, then polymerizes C9 to form
the MAC that creates a pore and lyses the target cell .

C0NTINUE
Binding of IgM or IgG to an antigen induces a conformational
change in the Fc region, allowing attachment of the complement
protein C1q.
C1q then binds to the CH2 domain of the antibody and
undergoes its own conformational change, activating the
proteases C1r and C1s.
Together, they form the C1 (C1qrs) complex, which cleaves C4
and C2, initiating the classical complement pathway.

MANNOSE-BINDING LECTIN PATHWAY
Activation: The lectin pathway begins when MBL protein (mannose-binding
lectin) bind to specific carbohydrate called mannose on microbial surfaces.
• MASP activation: Binding recruits MASP-1, MASP-2 (MBL-Associated
Serine Protease) which become activated .
• C4 & C2 cleavage: Activated MASPs cleave C4 and C2 to form the C3
convertase (C4bC2a) — same enzyme as in the classical pathway.
• C3 activation: C3 convertase cleaves C3 →C3a + C3b.
• C5 convertase formation: C4bC2aC3b is formed, which cleaves C5 →C5a
+ C5b.
• MAC formation: C5b initiates assembly of the MAC leading to target cell
lysis.

ALTERNATIVE
PATHWAY
Spontaneous activation: Begins with spontaneous hydrolysis of C3.
conform c3a and c3b which work a recognize foreign surfaces and bind to
it .
• Factor B & D: C3b binds Factor B, which is cleaved by Factor D →forming
unstable C3 convertase (C3bBb).
• Properdin stabilization: Properdin stabilizes C3bBb, increasing C3cleavage.
On microbes, stable C3bBb forms C5 convertase (C3bBbC3b) →cleaves C5
→C5a + C5b.
• Host regulation: On host cells, Factor H, Factor I, and MCP/CD46 inactivate
C3b to prevent self-damage.
• MAC formation: C5b initiates MAC leading to microbial lysis.

FUNCTION OF COMPLEMENT
SYSTEM
1) Surveillance of the host sensing danger by recognition of
the pattern recognition receptors (PRR)
2) Opsonisation of pathogens and dead cells, labeling them
for uptake and phagocytosis these function by c3b.
3) c3b helps to carry immune complexes on red blood cells
to the liver and spleen to disposal .
4) Generation of anaphylatoxins, supporting chemotaxis of
immune cells to the site of injury and modulation of vascular
permeability
5) Membrane attack complex (MAC) formation and
pathogen lysis.
