Allergens induce enhanced bronchoconstriction and leukotriene production in C5 deficient mice

BACKGROUND: Previous genetic analysis has shown that a deletion in the complement component 5 gene-coding region renders mice more susceptible to allergen-induced airway hyperresponsiveness (AHR) due to reduced IL-12 production. We investigated the role of complement in a murine model of asthma-like...
