Neuromyelitis Optica Spectrum Disorders: Critical Role of Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity
Critical Role of Complement-Dependent Cytotoxicity
The complement system was once thought to have a fairly limited role in the immune system, recognizing and eliminating pathogens. Now, however, complement proteins are known to have a much broader role in immunity, and dysregulation of the complement system has been shown to affect the pathogenesis and clinical picture of several autoimmune diseases. This supplement discusses the role of complement-dependent cytotoxicity in the pathophysiology of neuromyelitis optica spectrum disorders.
