Cell membranes and liposomes dissociate C‐reactive protein (CRP) to form a new, biologically active structural intermediate: mCRP _m

The FASEB Journal, 2006
Emerging evidence indicates that C‐reactive protein (CRP) has at least two conformationally distinct isoforms, i.e ., pentameric CRP (pCRP) and monomeric CRP (mCRP or CRP subunit). Both CRP isoforms are proposed to play roles in inflammation and may participate in the pathogenesis of ...

Stimulation of megakaryocytopoiesis in mice by human modified C-reactive protein (mCRP)

Experimental hematology, 1996
The prototypic human acute phase reactant, C-reactive protein (CRP), and a structurally modified form of CRP (mCRP) were studied as agents which could stimulate thrombopoiesis in both in vitro and in vivo mouse models. mCRP, but not the widely studied (native) pentameric form of CRP, demonstrated significant megakaryocyte colony-stimulating activity ...

Evaluating Beneficiary Perceptions of the Impact of WASH Infrastructure Under the Multi-Sectoral Crisis Recovery Project (MCRP) in Adamawa State, North-East Nigeria

International Research Journal of Innovations in Engineering and Technology
This study assesses the impact of Water, Sanitation, and Hygiene (WASH) infrastructure projects implemented under the Multi-Sectoral Crisis Recovery Project (MCRP) in Adamawa State, North-East Nigeria. In response to the protracted crisis caused by the Boko Haram insurgency and environmental challenges, the MCRP was launched by the Government of ...

Dynamics of circulating monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP) to predict outcomes with first-line alternating oxaliplatin-based chemotherapy and nivolumab in metastatic microsatellite-stable (MSS) colorectal cancer (CRC).

Journal of Clinical Oncology
3606 Background: Elevated CRP levels at CRC diagnosis are consistently associated with poor outcomes, suggesting a tumor-promoting and potentially immuno-suppressive inflammatory state.

Paediatric option in MRCP examination: a survey into the results of candidates electing to take the paediatrics option in MRCP (UK) Part II

Medical Education, 1977
Summary Five surveys on the performance of candidates in the paediatric option at MRCP(UK) Part II examination show the paediatric candidates to be at a disadvantage in the written part. The paediatric candidate is later in his career to obtain his MRCP (UK), as the mean interval from qualification to success at ...
