Complement inhibition by gram-positive pathogens: molecular mechanisms and therapeutic implications

The plasma proteins of the complement system are essential in the innate immune response against bacteria. Complement labels bacteria with opsonins to support phagocytosis and generates chemoattractants to attract phagocytes to the site of infection. In turn, bacterial human pathogens have evolved d...
