mCRP specifically binds to αvβ3, but pCRP less efficiently binds to the integrin.

open access: yes, 2014
Wells of 96 well microtiter plate were coated with mCRP or pCRP and remaining protein-binding sites were blocked with BSA. a) ELISA-type integrin binding assay.

Cancer cell‐selective ectopic expression of CD20 as an antigen enables rituximab repurposing for solid tumour immunotherapy

open access: yesClinical and Translational Medicine, Volume 16, Issue 9, September 2026.
A recombinant AAV delivered tumour gene therapy. NF‐κB drives tumour‐selective antigen (e.g., CD20) expression. Ectopic CD20 enables rituximab repurposing to solid tumours. ADCC, ADCP, and CDC contribute to the antitumour activity. Abstract Background Despite the clinical success of cancer immunotherapies, their efficacy is often compromised by antigen‐

Monomeric C-Reactive Protein: Current Perspectives for Utilization and Inclusion as a Prognostic Indicator and Therapeutic Target

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2022
Monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP), once thought to be a figment of the imagination and whose biological activity was ascribed to its sodium azide preservative, has now pronounced itself as a critical molecule playing a direct role in mediating many of ...

Repelled Point Processes With Application to Numerical Integration

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Statistics, Volume 53, Issue 3, Page 1101-1133, September 2026.
ABSTRACT We look at Monte Carlo numerical integration from a stochastic geometry point of view. While crude Monte Carlo estimators relate to linear statistics of a homogeneous Poisson point process (PPP), linear statistics of more regularly spread point processes can yield unbiased estimators with faster‐decaying variance, and thus lower integration ...

Amino acid residues involved in mCRP-αvβ3 interaction.

open access: yes, 2014
Amino acid residues in integrin αvβ3 and mCRP within 6 Å to each other in the docking model were identified using Swiss-pdb viewer v. 4.1.

Early identification of vascular cognitive impairment from a multimodal perspective: a combined diagnosis from targeted cognitive assessments, imaging biomarkers, and molecular fluid biomarkers to ecological behavioral characteristics

open access: yesAlzheimer's &Dementia, Volume 22, Issue 8, August 2026.
Abstract Vascular cognitive impairment (VCI), the second leading cause of dementia, is characterized by heterogeneous pathophysiology and a potentially reversible early phase, underscoring the need for timely identification. This review synthesizes advances across four complementary domains – targeted cognitive assessments, imaging biomarkers ...

Monomeric C-reactive protein affects cell injury and apoptosis through activation of p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase in human coronary artery endothelial cells

open access: yesBiomolecules & Biomedicine, 2020
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an important predictor of cardiovascular events and plays a role in vascular inflammation and vessel damage. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of pentameric CRP (pCRP) and monomeric CRP (mCRP) on the ...

mCRP binds to U937 monocytic cells, and induces robust chemotaxis in an integrin-dependent manner.

open access: yes, 2014
a). Adhesion of U937 cells to CRP isoforms. Wells of 96 well microtiter plate were coated with mCRP or pCRP and remaining protein-binding sites were blocked with BSA. Wells were incubated with U937 cells (105 cells per well) for 1 h in RPMI1640 and bound

A biofunctional review of C-reactive protein (CRP) as a mediator of inflammatory and immune responses: differentiating pentameric and modified CRP isoform effects

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute phase, predominantly hepatically synthesized protein, secreted in response to cytokine signaling at sites of tissue injury or infection with the physiological function of acute pro-inflammatory response. Historically,

Tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis syndrome in children: What to keep an eye on

open access: yesActa Ophthalmologica, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page e443-e452, June 2026.
Abstract Purpose The purpose of this study was to determine the disease course in patients with tubulointerstitial nephritis and uveitis (TINU) syndrome, focusing on long‐term outcome and the incidence of complications such as chronic kidney disease (CKD).
