Clinical Nephrology, 1980•europepmc.orgA dynamic estimation of the complement system was obtained by immunochemical
estimation of C3, C4, C5, C1q, C3b+ C3c, C3d, Ba in children with hemolytic-uremic
syndrome. The presence of increased breakdown products of C3 (C3b+ C3c, C3d) and of
factor B (Ba) suggests an activation of the complement system possibly by the alternative
pathway. No definite explanation for these complement abnormalities can be given.
