Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of complement activation. Any process involved in the activation of any of the steps of the complement cascade, which allows for the direct killing of microbes, the disposal of immune complexes, and the regulation of other immune processes; the initial steps of complement activation involve one of three pathways, the classical pathway, the alternative pathway, and the lectin pathway, all of which lead to the terminal complement pathway. Any process that increases the rate, frequency or extent of protein maturation by peptide bond cleavage. The activation of the membrane attack complex components of the complement cascade which can result in death of a target cell through cytolysis. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of complement activation. Any process that activates, maintains or increases the frequency, rate or extent of the activation of the membrane attack complex components of the complement cascade. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of the activation of the membrane attack complex components of the complement cascade. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of an immune effector process. Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of a humoral immune response.
