An ELISA Assay for Quantifying Monomeric C-Reactive Protein in Plasma [PDF]
Native C-reactive protein (nCRP) is a non-specific marker of inflammation being claimed as a bystander in several chronic disorders. Accumulating evidence indicates that nCRP dissociates to and acts primarily as the monomeric conformation (mCRP) at ...

Higher monomeric C-reactive protein levels are associated with premature coronary artery disease [PDF]
IntroductionChronic inflammation is a major risk factor for coronary artery disease (CAD). Currently, the inflammatory cardiovascular risk is assessed via C-reactive protein (CRP) levels measured using a high-sensitivity assay (hsCRP).

Monomeric C-reactive protein is associated with severity and prognosis of decompensated hepatitis B cirrhosis [PDF]
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein produced by the liver in response to infection and during chronic inflammatory disorders. Systemic inflammation is a major driver of cirrhosis progression from the compensated to the decompensated stage.

Monomeric C-reactive protein as a biomarker for major depressive disorder [PDF]
Neuroinflammation has been postulated to be a key factor in the pathogenesis of major depressive disorder (MDD). With this is mind, there has been a wave of research looking into pro-inflammatory mediators as potential biomarkers for MDD.

Monomeric C‐reactive protein induces the cellular pathology of Alzheimer's disease [PDF]
Introduction Human study shows that elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) in blood impacts apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4, but not APOE ε3 or APOE ε2, genotype to increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

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

Monomeric C-Reactive Protein and Cerebral Hemorrhage: From Bench to Bedside [PDF]
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an important mediator and a hallmark of the acute-phase response to inflammation. High-sensitivity assays that accurately measure levels of CRP have been recommended for use in risk assessment in ischemic stroke patients ...

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 [PDF]
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 ...
