Overview
The complement system is a biochemical cascade which helps clear pathogens from an organism. It belongs to the innate immune system. Deficiencies in this cascade can lead to infections and autoimmune diseases. Complement deficiencies can be inherited or acquired (as a result of complement-consuming disease state).

Disseminated Nisserial Infections
C5 Deficiency
- C5 deficiency is the basis of lack of phagocytosis-enhancing activity of serum. [1]
- C5 deficiency leads to the failure to form the membrane attack complex (MAC) which is responsible for the lytic action of the complement.[2]
- It is associated with recurrent disseminated gonococcal infection.[3]
- Patients present with recurrent meningitis and meningococcemia, as well as recurrent purulent otitis media.[4]
C6 Deficiency
- C6 is structurally similar to other terminal complement components, C5b, C7, C8, and C9, all of which participate in the formation of the membrane attack complex (MAC).[5]
- C6 deficiency is a genetic disorder presenting as an increased susceptibility to invasive Neisseria meningitidis infections.[6]
- Complete C6 deficiency presents with recurrent Neisseria meningitidis infection and it should be distinguished from subtotal C6 deficiency in which the complement protein is functionally active and there is no association with Neisserial infections.[7]
C7 Deficiency
- C7 is part of the membrane attack complex (MAC) and the deficiency of this protein leads to the failure of membrane attack complex (MAC) formation.
- Patients with C7 deficiency present with recurrent meningococcal infection.[8]
