Integrated dataset on acute phase protein response in chicken challenged with Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide endotoxin. [PDF]
Data herein describe the quantitative changes in the plasma proteome in chickens challenged with lipopolysaccharide (LPS), a bacterial endotoxin known to stimulate the host innate immune system obtained by shotgun quantitative proteomic tandem mass tags ...

Heritability of neonatal acute phase protein levels [PDF]
Levels of neonatal Acute Phase Proteins (APPs) have been associated with autism and schizophrenia. The relative contributions of genetic and environmental factors to variation in APP levels in the neonatal period are not known.

Acute phase reaction and acute phase proteins [PDF]
A review of the systemic acute phase reaction with major cytokines involved, and the hepatic metabolic changes, negative and positive acute phase proteins (APPs) with function and associated pathology is given. It appears that APPs represent appropriate analytes for assessment of animal health.

Elevated levels of C-reactive protein and pig major acute phase protein in lame gestating sows [PDF]
IntroductionLameness is a common clinical issue in gestating sows and a leading cause for early culling and antibiotic treatment. Diagnostic tools are limited, but acute acute phase proteins (APPs) could offer a fast and minimally invasive method for ...

Fertility failure of vulvar and vaginal squamous cell carcinoma in dairy cows associated with reproductive hormonal disturbance, vulvar and vaginal hyperplasia, acute phase protein production, and histopathological changes [PDF]
Background: The majority of neoplasms affect bovine species, and the most common are squamous cell carcinomas in sheep, goats, and cattle. Neoplasm of the vulva and vagina in dairy cattle undergo widespread in dairy herds.

Tracking acute phase protein response during acute and chronic Toxoplasma gondii infection [PDF]
Toxoplasmosis is a disease caused by the protozoan Toxoplasma gondii, which occurs worldwide in mammals and birds. Brain is the primary target organ because Toxoplasma gondii is a ubiquitous intracellular parasite that causes most frequently life ...

Acute Phase Protein Levels as An Auxiliary Tool in Diagnosing Viral Diseases in Ruminants—A Review [PDF]
We examined acute phase protein (APP) concentrations in viral infections of dairy ruminants and assessed the potential role of characteristic patterns of APP changes in auxiliary diagnosing viral diseases.

Evaluation of acute phase response in blood and milk samples of healthy holstein cattle in the postpartum period [PDF]
Normally, birth triggers an acute phase response (APR). In particular, interleukins and proinfl ammatory cytokines released from activated leukocytes at the site of tissue damage stimulate APR.

Biological significance of C-reactive protein, the ancient acute phase functionary
C-reactive protein (CRP) is one of the major members of the family of acute phase proteins (APP). Interest in this CRP was the result of a seminal discovery of its pattern of response to pneumococcal infection in humans.

Breakdown of supersaturation barrier links protein folding to amyloid formation
Noji et al. test link between protein folding and misfolding upon heating and agitation. They show that folding and amyloid formation are separated by the supersaturation barrier of a protein, breakdown of which shifts the protein to the amyloid pathway.
