“…Also, in clinical TRALI cases, complement activation contributes to the inflammatory cascade . Antibodies in transfused components may result in activation of the complement system . Possibly, the formation of immune complexes activates the complement system via the classical pathway; however, the exact route of complement activation in TRALI remains to be established.…”
In a murine model of TRALI, C1-inhibitor attenuated pulmonary levels of C3a associated with improved lung injury scores, but with persistent high levels of inflammatory cytokines.

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
