Relationships between alternative complement pathway activation, C-reactive protein, and pneumococcal infection.

In the absence of specific antibody, opsonization of Streptococcus pneumoniae may be mediated by the alternative complement pathway (AP) or by C-reactive protein (CRP) via C1 binding. To determine the role of these mechanisms in pneumococcal (PNC) disease, we studied 19 patients with differing sever...
