Introduction | Complement C5a, together with C5b, are protein fragments released from cleavage of complement component C5 by protease C5-convertase. C5a is a chemotactic agent, as well as an anaphylatoxin, playing critical roles in migration and adherence of neutrophils and monocytes, smooth muscle contraction, and vascular permeability increase. |
