Mendelian randomization analysis: The causal relationship between C-reactive protein and amyloidosis and between C-reactive protein and atherosclerosis. [PDF]
BackgroundA number of studies have shown that elevated CRP is linked to AS and reduced CRP is linked to amyloidosis. However, the exact mechanism explaining this connection is not known.MethodsWe used genomic pooled data from the Genome-Wide Association ...

Role of C-Reactive Protein at Sites of Inflammation and Infection
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute inflammatory protein that increases up to 1,000-fold at sites of infection or inflammation. CRP is produced as a homopentameric protein, termed native CRP (nCRP), which can irreversibly dissociate at sites of ...

C-Reactive Protein in Atherothrombosis and Angiogenesis
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a short pentraxin mainly found as a pentamer in the circulation, or as non-soluble monomers CRP (mCRP) in tissues, exerting different functions.

Albumin concentrations are primarily determined by the body cell mass and the systemic inflammatory response in cancer patients with weight loss [PDF]
The association between hypoalbuminemia and poor prognosis in patients with cancer is well recognized. However, the factors that contribute to the fall in albumin concentrations are not well understood.

OSTEOPOROSIS AND C-REACTIVE PROTEIN
A chronic inflammatory process is one of the risk factors of secondary osteoporosis (OP) and its related fractures. Determination of the level of C-reactive protein (CRP) is used to estimate the magnitude of an inflammatory reaction. The developed highly

Evolution of C-Reactive Protein
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an evolutionarily conserved protein. From arthropods to humans, CRP has been found in every organism where the presence of CRP has been sought.

The effect of robenacoxib on the concentration of C-reactive protein in synovial fluid from dogs with osteoarthritis [PDF]
Background: Robenacoxib is a novel and highly selective inhibitor of COX-2 in dogs and cats and because of its acidic nature is regarded as being tissue-selective.

The Effect of C-Reactive Protein Isoforms on Nitric Oxide Production by U937 Monocytes/Macrophages
Inflammation is regulated by many endogenous factors including estrogen, a steroid hormone that declines with increasing age, leading to excessive inflammation in the elderly. C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase inflammatory protein that exists in
