Difference between Complement component 3 and Glomerulonephritis

Complement component 3 vs. Glomerulonephritis

Complement component 3, often simply called C3, is a protein of the immune system. Glomerulonephritis (GN), also known as glomerular nephritis, is a term used to refer to several kidney diseases (usually affecting both kidneys).

Similarities between Complement component 3 and Glomerulonephritis

Complement component 3 and Glomerulonephritis have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis, C3-convertase, Complement system, Protein, Shunt nephritis.

Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis

Acute proliferative glomerulonephritis is a disorder of the glomeruli (glomerulonephritis), or small blood vessels in the kidneys.

C3-convertase

C3 convertase (C2, C4bC2b, (formerly C4bC2a)C3bBb, complement C.hivin.4.hivin2, complement C3 convertase) belongs to family of serine proteases and is necessary in innate immunity as a part of the complement system which eventuate in opsonisation of particles, release of inflammatory peptides, C5 convertase formation and cell lysis.

Complement system

The complement system is a part of the immune system that enhances (complements) the ability of antibodies and phagocytic cells to clear microbes and damaged cells from an organism, promotes inflammation, and attacks the pathogen's cell membrane.
