Receptors for complement C3 on T-lymphocytes: relics of evolution or functional molecules?
Despite the fact that receptors for complement on T-cells have been described many years ago the function remains unclear as is the role of complement in the T-cell response. In this review we will evaluate how the accumulated wisdom concur with the current concepts of the adaptive T-cell response.
