ABSTRACT

The brain is largely protected from damage due to infection, trauma, and aberrant processes by the innate immune system. These studies were undertaken to determine whether neurons in normal brains constitutively express complement components. In situ hybridization and immunohistochemical studies with specific riboprobes and antibodies, respectively, revealed that most hippocampal neurons, many pyramidal cortical neurons and cerebellar Purkinje neurons in normal murine brains constitutively express C3, C5 and C6. The constitutive expression by neuronal subsets of components of the complement activation and membrane attack pathways suggests that the complement system represents a "first line" of host defense in the brain.
