Abstract
Our results showed that complement activation is an early event in AMI occurring before the elevation of classical markers of myocardial necrosis such as creatine kinase, creatine kinase-MB isoform, myoglobin and troponin-I. These findings indicated C3d and sC5b9 as possible biomarkers for inflammation and tissue damage in AMI.
