Effects of C5a blockade on thymocyte apoptosis induced by CVF. Rats were injected intravenously with 3 U CVF and 500 μg preimmune IgG or 500 μg anti-C5a, and thymocyte apoptosis was evaluated by Ax staining 3 hours after infusion. For CLP rats, CVF was given 3 hours after CLP surgery. AP < 0.05 when compared with control or CVF + αC5a group. BP < 0.01 when compared with CLP or CLP + CVF + αC5a group. All values represent means ± SEM (n = 4 or 5). CP > 0.05 when compared with control. DP > 0.05 when compared with CLP.
