Complement System

The complement system, composed of more than 30 serum and cell surface components, is collaborating in recognition and elimination of pathogens as a part of both the innate and acquired immune systems. Once the complement system is activated, a chain of reactions involving proteolysis and assembly occurs, resulting in cleavage of the third complement component (C3). The cascade up to C3 cleavage is called the activation pathway. There are three activation pathways: the classical, lectin, and alternative pathways.

The complement cascade is a dual-edged sword, causing protection against bacterial and viral invasion by promoting phagocytosis and inflammation. Pathologically, complement can cause substantial damage to blood vessels (vasculitis), kidney basement membrane and attached endothelial and epithelial cells (nephritis), joint synovium (arthritis), and erythrocytes (hemolysis) if it is not adequately controlled.

    Cobra Venom Factor
    Activator 99.07%
    Cobra Venom Factor (CVF) is a selective activator targeting complement components C3, C5, and factor B in the complement system. After binding to factor B, Cobra Venom Factor is cleaved by factor D, forming a stable C3/C5 convertase resistant to regulatory proteins H and I. This continuously hydrolyzes C3 and C5, depleting serum complement while inducing neutrophil migration, vascular leakage, and increased TNF-α levels. Cobra Venom Factor can be used to deplete complement and mimic complement activation-related pathological states, and is applied in animal models of complement-mediated diseases such as acute respiratory distress syndrome (ARDS), sepsis, and shock. Cobra Venom Factor can be isolated from the venom of cobras (e.g., Naja atra, Naja melanoleuca, Naja kaouthia, etc.).
