Acute-phase proteins in osteoarthritis
The joint destruction of osteoarthritis (OA) comprises loss of articular cartilage resulting from an imbalance of enzyme-catalized cartilage breakdown and regeneration. OA is thought to derive from defective chondrocyte metabolism and thus to inherently lack the large-scale systemic response that is the hallmark of rheumatoid arthritis (RA). Because of

Acute Phase Proteins in Marine Mammals: State of Art, Perspectives and Challenges
The term “acute phase response” (APR) is referred to a nonspecific and complex reaction of an organism that occurs shortly after any tissue damage, such as infection, trauma, neoplasia, inflammation, and stress.

Changes in Acute-Phase Proteins in Plasma during the Periparturient Period of Dairy Goats
The present study was conducted regarding four acute-phase proteins (APPs) including C-reactive protein (CRP), ceruloplasmin (CP), serum amyloid A (SAA), and haptoglobin (HP) in dairy goats during the periparturient period.
