Study of EHFV Directly Activating Complement C3 in Vitro
Abstract: The antigens of four EHFV strains from different sources(Chen, H8205, ALC96, R22)purified by sucrose gradient centrifugation incubated with normal human sera in 37℃ for 30 minutes Cross-immunoelectrophoresis was used to detect whether complement C_3 was activated. The results showed that Chen, H8205, R22 strains antigens can directly activate C_3, typical degradative peak was found after electrophoresis. But ALC96 and normal antigen were negative. Ability of activating C_3 of EHFV antigens was related to th...
