Monomeric C-Reactive Protein in Serum With Markedly Elevated CRP Levels Shares Common Calcium-Dependent Ligand Binding Properties With an in vitro Dissociated Form of C-Reactive Protein

Frontiers in Immunology, 2020
A monomeric form of C-reactive protein (CRP) which precipitates with cell wall pneumococcal C polysaccharide (CWPS) and retains the ability to reversibly bind to its ligand phosphocholine has been produced through urea-induced dissociation at an ...

Elevated C-reactive protein in asymptomatic Crohn's disease patients. listen to the sound of silence [PDF]

, 2017
Bhattacharya et al1 confirmed and extended their previous finding2 indicating that “silent” Crohn’s disease (CD) patients (i.e., asymptomatic patients with elevated C-reactive protein [CRP] level) are a subgroup of patients at the higher risk of ...

Comparison of C-reactive protein and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein levels in patients on hemodialysis

Saudi Journal of Kidney Diseases and Transplantation, 2012
Chronic inflammation is highly prevalent in patients on hemodialysis (HD), as evidenced by increased levels of C-reactive protein (CRP). We compared CRP to high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) to determine whether it has any clinical implications

C-reactive protein, immunothrombosis and venous thromboembolism

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a member of the highly conserved pentraxin superfamily of proteins and is often used in clinical practice as a marker of infection and inflammation.

Age-related changes in vascular structure and function Determinants and cardiovascular risk [PDF]

, 2005
Arterial stiffness is one of the characteristics of vascular aging. Increases in pulse pressure, which re.ects an increase in the stiffness of the large arteries, are associated with elevated C-reactive protein levels.

The 82-plex plasma protein signature that predicts increasing inflammation [PDF]

, 2015
The objective of the study was to define the specific plasma protein signature that predicts the increase of the inflammation marker C-reactive protein from index day to next-day using proteome analysis and novel bioinformatics tools.

Diagnostic strategies for C-reactive protein

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2002
Background Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) has been identified in prospective epidemiological research as an independent risk marker for cardiovascular disease. In this paper, short-term biological variation of CRP is documented and a strategy to test the

Area-Level Socioeconomic Status, Adiposity, Physical Activity, and Inflammation in Young Adults, 2013 [PDF]

, 2014
INTRODUCTION: We assessed the independent effects of socioeconomic status, sex, adiposity, and physical activity on C-reactive protein in young adults. METHODS: During the fall semester of their first year, college students (n = 177; mean age, 18.1 y; 66.

Long-term effect of antiepileptic drug switch on serum lipids and C-reactive protein. [PDF]

, 2016
BACKGROUND: Prior studies have shown that switching patients from inducing antiepileptic drugs (AEDs) to lamotrigine, levetiracetam, or topiramate reduces serum lipids and C-reactive protein (CRP). These studies were all of short duration, and some drugs,
