Journal Title: UNKNOWN - Year 2017, Vol 8, Issue 1
Abstract
After enormous efforts to fight for a successful HIV vaccine, the movement ended with frustration. While people are celebrating the victories of disease prophylaxis and healthy improvement, millions of them are still struggling on numerous unsettled dreadful illnesses, i.e., HIV, malaria, TB, cancer and autoimmune disorders. A theory of Intact or Protected Complement (IPC) immunity proposed in this review is to focus on hijacked complement system, the powerful leverage weapon restrained by many pathogens or cancer cells. The theory is to stimulate more investigations to discover the key block in continuous achievement in successful vaccine development and immune therapy.
