Question

Explain how complements pathways are activated to destroy bacterial cells

Answer 1

complement is a complex protein network of plasma and an integral part of the immune system .complement activation results in the rapid clerance of bacteria by immune cells and direct bacterial killing via large pore forming complexes.molecular interplay between com[lement and baceria is of grat im[ortance for future therapies for infectious and inflammatory diseases .antibodies that support complement dependent bacterial killing are of interest for the development of alternative therepies to treat infectious with antibiotic resistant bacteria. a variety of novel therapeutic complement inhibitors have been developed to prevent unwanted complement activation in auoimmune inflammatory diseases
