Serum COMP-C3b complexes in rheumatic diseases and relation to anti-TNF-α treatment
INTRODUCTION: Cartilage oligomeric matrix protein (COMP) is found at elevated concentrations in sera of patients with joint diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis (RA) and osteoarthritis (OA). We recently showed that COMP activates complement via the alternative pathway and that COMP-C3b complexes ar...
