A conformational change of complement C5 is required for thrombin-mediated cleavage, revealed by a novel ex vivo human whole blood model preserving full thrombin activity
Nilsson, Per; Johnson, Christina; Quach, Huy Quang; Macpherson, Alex; Durrant, Oliver; Pischke, Soeren; Fure, Hilde; Landsem, Anne; Bergseth, Grete; Schjalm, Camilla; Haugaard-Kedström, Linda M.; Huber-Lang, Markus; van den Elsen, Jean; Brekke, Ole-Lars; Mollnes, Tom Eirik (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021)Thrombin activation of C5 connects thrombosis to inflammation. Complement research in whole blood ex vivo necessitates anticoagulation, which potentially interferes with the inflammatory modulation by thrombin. We challenged ...
