“…Considering the important roles of complement system in the innate immunity, there is limited understanding as to whether complement activation by nanoparticles in preclinical species can resemble human response. For instance pigs have considerably lower levels of complement factors and lower activity of all complement pathways in comparison to humans [ 91 , 93 ]. This raises significant concern in using the porcine model to investigate, for instance, the involvement of complement in hypersensitivity reactions.…”

“…Towards resolving the role of complement anaphylatoxins in infusion reactions, we have not been able to inhibit complement in pigs in vivo, since availability of porcine-specific complement inhibitors and C3 knockout pigs are scarce [ 112 , 113 ]. Notwithstanding, considering differences between porcine and human complement functionality [ 91 ], we should further await studies with complement therapeutics (e.g., complement inhibitors of different steps of the complement cascade either approved by regulatory bodies or in clinical development) [ 114 116 ] to evaluate and dissect the role of complement cascade in nanomedicine-mediated infusion reactions in humans.…”

“…According to Maye [ 33 ] the bactericidal activity in bovine milk is higher than in human milk. Similarly, Sakai [ 34 ] detected a lower complement activity in porcine sera compared to human sera. Each of the above mentioned authors used a different method of complement activity determination, so itis incomparable in absolute numbers.…”
