A Critical Role for Murine Complement Regulator Crry in Fetomaternal Tolerance
21 Jan 2000
Abstract excerpt
Complement is a component of natural immunity. Its regulation is needed to protect tissues from inflammation, but mice with a disrupted gene for the complement regulator decay accelerating factor were normal. Mice that were deficient in another murine complement regulator, Crry, were generated to investigate its role in vivo.
