pubmed:abstractText |
Purified human native third component of complement, C3, was found to inhibit in vitro natural killer (NK) cell cytotoxicity in both mouse and human systems. The effect was dose and time dependent, a 50% inhibition being reached with 190 nM C3 (35 micrograms/ml) added during the NK assay or after a 30-min preincubation of the effector cells with this C3 concentration. C3 was shown to act at the effector-cell population level because pretreatment of the target cells did not modify the NK lysis. The inhibition was not due to general cytotoxicity nor to cell agglutination. Moreover, another in vitro cytotoxicity system (represented by alloreactive cytotoxic lymphocytes) was not affected by purified C3. Structural analysis of the active part of the C3 molecule shows that the C3-induced inhibition is supported by the C3a fragment. Release of carboxyl-terminal arginine residue by carboxypeptidase B, converting C3a into des-Arg77-C3a, did not alter the inhibitory effect displayed by this fragment. These results suggest that C3a may play an important role in the regulation of NK activity.
