Acidosis activates complement system in vitro
We investigated the in vitro effect of different form s of acidosis (pH 7.0) on the formation of anaphylatoxins C3a and C5a. Metabolic acidosis due to addition of hydrochloric acid (10 μ mol/ml blood) or lactic acid (5.5 μ mol/ml) to heparin blood (N=12) caused significant activation of C3a and C5a...
