Neurofilaments: The C-Reactive Protein of Neurology
Brain Sciences, 2020 Neurofilaments (NFs) are quickly becoming the biomarkers of choice in the field of neurology, suggesting their use as an unspecific screening marker, much like the use of elevated plasma C-reactive protein (CRP) in other fields. With sensitive techniques

Circulation Research, 2014 C-Reactive protein (CRP) is a member of the pentraxin family of proteins and is highly conserved throughout evolution. In humans, CRP is a major acute phase protein with well-defined roles in innate and adaptive immunity.1 CRP expression is induced by inflammatory cytokines; primarily interleukin-6 (IL-6) with other factors, including IL-1β and tumor ...

Development of canine C-reactive protein assays
Acta Veterinaria Scandinavica, 2020 C-reactive protein (CRP), which is released during tissue damage and inflammation, is a useful nonspecific inflammatory marker in both human and veterinary clinical practice.

C-reactive protein and atherothrombosis
BMC News and views, 2001 Circulating concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP), the classical acute phase protein and sensitive systemic marker of inflammation, significantly predict atherothrombotic events and outcome after acute myocardial infarction, demonstrating the key role of inflammation in atherosclerosis and its complications.

Membrane activity of a C‐reactive protein [PDF]
FEBS Letters, 2009 C‐reactive protein (CRP) from the American horseshoe crab, Limulus polyphemus, exhibits complex membrane activities. Here, we describe the behavior of protein and lipid as CRP interacts with model liposomes and bacterial membranes. Limulus C‐reactive protein (L‐CRP) forms extended fibrilar structures that encapsulate liposomes in the presence of Ca2 ...

Functionality of C-Reactive Protein for Atheroprotection
Frontiers in Immunology, 2019 C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentameric molecule made up of identical monomers. CRP can be seen in three different forms: native pentameric CRP (native CRP), non-native pentameric CRP (non-native CRP), and monomeric CRP (mCRP).
