Sentence examples for effect of the complement from inspiring English sources

Aiming to understand how T. cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes interact with the human complement system, we analysed the effect of the complement system on the lysis and eukaryotic cell invasion by several T. cruzi strains.

However, the understanding that T. cruzi metacyclic trypomastigotes can be lysed by the complement system or the parasites could express transiently complement regulators facilitating them to resist the lytic effect of the complement and produce infection; open new possibilities to investigate parasite extrinsic mechanisms involved in immune evasion.

When human plasma (up to 50%) was added to the cytotoxicity assay, it produced an increase in the level of tumour cell lysis, most likely an effect of the complement proteins present in the plasma.

In particular, we were focused on the effects of the complement concentrations and the effector cells to target cells ratios (Fig. 5).

It should also be remembered that granulocyte pleocytosis and oligocytosis may rarely occur after subarachnoid hemorrhage, where the pseudopurulent noninfectious inflammation is induced by chemotactic and stimulatory effects of cytokines, the complement component C5a, and adhesion molecules; that is, both cytology and CEB correspond to the oxidative burst [ 29– 33].

Therefore, non-complement-activating monoclonal antibodies against CD55 and CD59 were used to block the functional effects of these complement regulators (2 6 h, 37°C) prior to the initial serum sensitization (Bodian et al., 1997; Harris et al., 2000).

Also, the higher the citrate concentration the more pronounced the effect on reduction of the complement and granulocyte activation.
