1 Jan 2005
Abstract excerpt
It has been suggested that the activation of the complement system is involved in the pathogenesis of several neurodegenerative diseases including Alzheimer's disease (AD), Parkinson's disease (PD), and multiple sclerosis (MS). Here, the CSF expression levels of complement proteins C3b, C4b, factor B, and factor H were compared between normal subjects and patients diagnosed with AD, PD, MS, and neurosyphilis. The...
