Regulation of complement destruction of normal body cells is controlled by
A) CD8, serum factor C3b, and serum albumin.
B) CD58, serum factor H, and decay-accelerating factor.
C) CD4, serum factor Bb, and decay-accelerating factor.
D) MHC I, serum factor C5a, and serum lipoprotein.
E) MHC II, serum albumin, and T regulatory cells.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The regulation of complement destruction of normal body cells is controlled by CD58, serum factor H, and decay-accelerating factor. CD58 helps with binding and regulation of complement activation, serum factor H binds to the C3b fragment to inactivate it, and decay-accelerating factor prevents the formation and stability of the C3 convertases.
