Background Information
The gamma chain of complement component 8 (C8G) is one of three different subunits (alpha, beta, and gamma) of the eighth complement component (C8), which is a component of the MAC (membrane attack complex) (PMID:33382892). Although the roles of C8A and C8B are directly associated with MAC formation, C8G is not essential in the assembly and activity of the MAC (PMID:11960635). Moreover, C8G was shown to inhibit neuroinflammation by interfering with the sphingosine-1-phosphate (S1P)-S1PR2 interaction (PMID:34149451).
