Figure 1.
OPSS-liposomes specifically bind complement C3 proteins.
Notes: OPSS-liposomes (OPSS) and control-liposomes (Control) were exposed to serum containing complement C3. Colloidal gold stain shows all serum proteins bound to liposomes (left panel). Immunodetection with anti-C3 antibody (right panel) shows that OPSS-liposomes bind complement C3 and its activated fragments, while control-liposomes do not. The migration of molecular weight markers is indicated on the left side of the blot.
Abbreviation: OPSS, orthopyridyl disulfide.
