C-reactive protein haplotypes and dispositional optimism in obese and nonobese elderly subjects [PDF]
Background Chronic low-grade inflammation, characterized by elevated plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), has been inversely associated with dispositional optimism.

C-reactive protein and atherothrombosis
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.

Antibodies to C reactive protein [PDF]
C reactive protein (CRP) is a known indicator of inflammation. Serum CRP is often raised in patients with inflammatory conditions.To determine whether individuals make antibodies to CRP and whether this might affect serum CRP concentrations.An enzyme linked immunosorbent assay was developed for the detection of antibodies to CRP.

C-Reactive Protein and Arteriosclerosis
Although extensively studied and indeed emotionally discussed for more than two decades the role of C-reactive protein (CRP) in cardiovascular disease remains controversial. Three major questions are still not yet resolved. (1) Is CRP a clinically relevant marker of cardiovascular risk? (2) Is CRP even more than a risk marker, that is, a risk factor in

ABSTRACT Background Cytomegalovirus (CMV) is a recognized trigger of immune thrombocytopenia (ITP); however, its incidence and impact on disease course in children remain controversial. Therefore, we aimed to characterize the clinical course of pediatric patients with CMV‐associated ITP.

C-Reactive Protein in Atherothrombosis and Angiogenesis [PDF]
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. This review is focused on discussing the role of CRP in cardiovascular disease, including recent advances on the implication of CRP and its forms specifically on the pathogenesis of

ABSTRACT Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a frequent and serious complication in children receiving cancer therapy. Standardizing FN management across Asia is challenging due to variable healthcare infrastructure, diagnostic capacity, and infection patterns; however, it could improve resource use and patient outcomes.

ABSTRACT Introduction Hyperlipidemia is a major risk factor for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease (ASCVD). Although statins are the cornerstone of lipid‐lowering therapy, their use may be limited in some patients by adverse effects. This study evaluated the possible impact of non‐drug treatment using double‐filtration plasmapheresis (DFPP) on CD14+

Gut microbiome and aging—A dynamic interplay of microbes, metabolites, and the immune system
Age‐dependent shifts in microbial communities engender shifts in microbial metabolite profiles. These in turn drive shifts in barrier surface permeability of the gut and brain and induce immune activation. When paired with preexisting age‐related chronic inflammation this increases the risk of neuroinflammation and neurodegenerative diseases.

Membrane activity of a C‐reactive protein [PDF]
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 ...
