Anaphylatoxins, or complement peptides, are fragments (C3a, C4a and C5a) that are produced as part of the activation of the complement system. Complement...

The anaphylatoxin receptors are a group of G-protein coupled receptors which bind anaphylatoxins. Members of this family include: C3a receptor C3AR1 C5a...
