The C3a receptor also known as complement component 3a receptor 1 (C3AR1) is a G protein-coupled receptor protein involved in the complement system.[5][6]

The receptor binds to complement component C3a, although there is limited evidence that this receptor also binds C4a in lesser mammals. This has yet to be proven true in humans.[7] C3a receptor modulates immunity,[8] arthritis, diet-induced obesity[9] and cancers.[10]

Agonists and antagonists

Potent and selective agonists[11] and antagonists[12] for C3aR have been discovered.
