Abstract

Complement regulates many of the mediators of inflammation, immunity, and repair. As a result, complement is an important link between antigen-independent and antigen-dependent immune responses to transplanted organs. This review discusses the role of complement in activating platelets, granulocytes, monocytes, macrophages, lymphocytes, endothelial cells, and vascular smooth muscle cells at different stages after organ transplantation.
