Activation of the alternative pathway of complement: efficient fluid-phase amplification by blockade of the regulatory complement protein beta1H through sulfated polyanions.

abstract：:Fc gamma receptor I-positive (CD64+) and Fc gamma receptor I-negative (CD64-) monocytes were prepared from highly purified (elutriation-derived) human monocytes by cytofluorograph cell sorting, and a phenotypical and functional dissociation of the isolated CD64+ and CD64- monocyte subsets is demonstrated.
