Research Abstract |
Adipsin, a complemental activator, was detected prominently in the labyrinthine region of abortion placentas. But the complement component 3 and the alternative complement pathway was not markedly activated. Since Crry, an inhibitor for complement acting in the downstream of adipsin, increased, it was suggested that adipsin does not have a strong effect to activate complement system in the abortion placenta. Adipsin may have an influence in the lipid metabolism on the reproductive physiology.
