Thirty-one patients, 10 months to 20 years of age, were studied. A complement abnormality was not identified in sera from patients with sickle cell disease (SCD) by the methods employed in the present study. Concentrations of C3, factor B, total hemolytic activity (CH50), properdin, and C3b inactivator were similar in sera from patients and control subjects (Table 1 and Fig. 2). Although concentrations of C3b inactivator protein were below normal in a few patients, there was no evidence that these levels were low enough to alter the functions mediated by this protein. |
