Q

Low C3 only

A

Disorders in which C3 is decreased but C4 is not include MPGN and post-infectious glomerulonephritis, indicating a tendency for the alternative pathway to be active moreso than the classical pathway.

PSGN and MPGN type 2 (DDD)

Q

Low C3 and C4

A

Shunt nephritis, Lupus, Cyrgoglobulinemia, MPGN Type 1, Bacterial endocarditis

Activation of the classical pathway will typically result in lowering of both C3 and C4, and therefore disorders in which BOTH C3 and C4 are decreased include lupus nephritis and cryoglobulinemia
