• W2055668384 abstract "Hemodialysis with cuprophane dialyzer membranes promotes rapid activation of the complement system, which is thought to be mediated by the alternative pathway. Complete hereditary deficiency of complement C4, a classical pathway component, in two hemodialysis patients provided the opportunity to investigate a possible role of the classical pathway. In two hemodialysis patients with both C4 isotypes, C4A and C4B, and in one patient with C4B deficiency complement activation occurred immediately after the onset of hemodialysis, with peak levels of C3a and terminal complement complex (TCC) after ten to fifteen minutes. In patients with complete C4 deficiency, C3a and TCC remained unchanged for fifteen minutes and increased thereafter, reaching the highest level after thirty minutes. The leukocyte nadir was also delayed from fifteen to thirty minutes. In vitro incubation of normal, C4A- or C4B-deficient serum with cuprophane caused complement activation after fifteen minutes. In contrast, no activation was observed in sera of four C4-deficient patients. The addition of normal serum or purified human C4 restored the capacity for rapid complement activation. In one patient with severe immunoglobulin deficiency, C3a and TCC levels increased only moderately after 25 minutes of cuprophane dialysis. This patient's serum also exhibited delayed complement activation in vitro, which was normalized after pretreatment of cuprophane with immunoglobulins. Preincubation of normal serum with MgEGTA, a blocker of the classical pathway, inhibited rapid complement activation through cuprophane. As basal levels of C4a are markedly increased in hemodialysis patients (3450 +/- 850 ng/ml) compared to healthy controls (224 +/- 81 ng/ml), no further elevation of C4a was detectable during cuprophane hemodialysis. Incubation of normal serum with cuprophane, however, caused a slight increase in C4a after five minutes. These results indicate that the initial deposition of complement C3b on the cuprophane membrane, necessary for activation of the amplification loop of the alternative pathway, is mediated by the classical pathway C3-convertase C4b2a. We propose an extended concept of complement activation through cuprophane, which is based on four steps: (a) binding of anti-polysaccharide antibodies, (b) classical pathway activation, (c) alternative pathway activation and (d) terminal pathway activation." @default.
