Genetic aspects of complement component C8 in Norwegian meningococcal disease patients.

Scandinavian journal of infectious diseases - 1 Jan 1990

Rogde S, Høiby E A, Teisberg P, Olaisen B

Abstract excerpt

Sera from 85 consecutive systemic meningococcal disease patients and 203 matched control individuals were C8 typed. In the patient group, one C8B deficient individual was discovered; none in the control group. No case of C8A deficiency was encountered. The material was collected during a period of epidemic meningococcal disease in Norway, mainly due to group B organisms. C8A and C8B phenotype distributions were...
