The specific contributions of factor H and factor I in controlling fluid phase activation of the alternative complement pathway

Abstract The immediate defense provided by the alternative complement pathway (AP) is under constant control by fluid phase regulators, factor H (FH) and factor I (FI), to prevent nonessential activation. Removal of either FI or FH from serum results in spontaneous AP activation, although the extent...
