Diminished capacity of opsonization and immune complex solubilization, and detection of anti-C1q antibodies in sera from patients with hereditary angioedema

Background: Hereditary angioedema (HAE) is an autosomal dominant disease caused by deficiency of C1 esterase inhibitor. Symptoms of HAE include edema, which can potentially cause suffocation.
