Loss of properdin exacerbates C3 glomerulopathy resulting from factor H deficiencyMarieta M Ruseva
Centre for Complement and Inflammation Research, Imperial College, London, United Kingdom
J Am Soc Nephrol 24:43-52. 2013..In summary, during uncontrolled activation of C3 driven by complete CFH deficiency, properdin influences the intraglomerular localization of C3, suggesting that therapeutic inhibition of properdin would be detrimental in this setting...
