That Wasn’t a Complement—Too Much C3 in Demyelinating Disease

Abstract

Multiple sclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disease characterized by demyelination in the central nervous system. In this issue of Immunity, Werneberg et al. report a striking loss of synapses driven by excessive microglial pruning early in demyelinating disease, which can be rescued by inhibiting the complement component C3.
