Abstract
RHP is a recently described serum protein which inhibits a number of physiologic functions of C1q unbound to C1r2 x C1s2. In this report we show that sera from patients with rheumatoid arthritis contained elevated levels of RHP and of unbound C1q. Sera from patients with systemic lupus erythematosus contained normal levels of RHP and were characterized by deficits of C1q required to form C1 from existing levels of C1r and C1s.Entities:
