06/01/1998 - "C3 beta c was purified as a novel neutrophil chemoattractant from the exudate of the chronic phase of rat carrageenin-induced inflammation. "
08/16/1993 - "C3a exhibits potent chemotactic activity for rat neutrophils, and C3 beta c is a novel basic neutrophil chemoattractant with molecular mass of about 11 kDa, suggesting that both chemoattractants play a role in the neutrophil infiltration into inflammatory site of carrageenin-induced inflammation in rats."
