title: Complement components in blood serum and suction blister fluid in erythropoietic protoporphyria.
abstract: Complement factor's C3c, C4, factor B, C3d and the immunoglobulin IgA were determined in suction blister fluid of patients with erythropoietic protoporphyria and in normal controls. The levels increased when the skin of the patients had been previously irradiated with 'white light', but with Kromayer radiation, and were interpreted as being the result of increased vasopermeability.
