Komplement C8-Mangel Typ 1

Als Komplement C8-Mangel Typ 1 wird eine Mangel der alpha-Untereinheit des Proteins verstanden. Klinisch lässt sich der Typ 1 vom Typ 2 (beta-Untereinheit betreffend) nicht unterscheiden. Beide Typen sind für eine gestörte Abwehr insbesondere von Meningokokken-Infektionen verantwortlich.
