Monomeric C-reactive Protein as a Mediator of Chronic Inflammation in Obesity. [PDF]
Obesity is associated with persistent low-grade inflammation. This inflammation results from interactions between adipose tissue, immune cells, and metabolic pathways. High-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP) serves as a marker for systemic inflammation but does not evaluate local inflammatory processes.

Immunoradiometric assay of circulating C-reactive protein: age-related values in the adult general population [PDF]
Background: Increased values of C-reactive protein (CRP), the classical acute phase protein, within the range below 5 mg/L, previously considered to be within the reference interval, are strongly associated with increased risk of atherothrombotic events,

Monomeric C-Reactive Protein - A Feature of Inflammatory Disease Associated With Cardiovascular Pathophysiological Complications? [PDF]
Monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP), the dissociated form of native C-reactive protein, is a critical molecule that causes and perpetuates inflammation in serious diseases. It has 'adhesive'-like properties causing aggregation of blood cells and platelets, and can stick permanently within arterial tissue where it can contribute to further complications

Monomeric C-reactive protein and inflammatory injury in myocardial infarction. [PDF]
This editorial refers to ‘Circulating microparticles generate and transport monomeric C-reactive protein in patients with myocardial infarction’ by J. Habersberger et al. , pp. 64–72, this issue. C-reactive protein, a member of the pentraxin superfamily, is a prototypical ‘acute-phase’ protein that is synthesized at a low rate under physiological ...

Monomeric C-reactive protein and inflammation in age-related macular degeneration. [PDF]
AbstractAge‐related macular degeneration (AMD) is a devastating disease characterized by central vision loss in elderly individuals. Previous studies have suggested a link between elevated levels of total C‐reactive protein (CRP) in the choroid, CFH genotype, and AMD status; however, the structural form of CRP present in the choroid, its relationship ...

An Intrinsically Disordered Motif Mediates Diverse Actions of Monomeric C-reactive Protein. [PDF]
Most proinflammatory actions of C-reactive protein (CRP) are only expressed following dissociation of its native pentameric assembly into monomeric form (mCRP). However, little is known about what underlies the greatly enhanced activities of mCRP. Here we show that a single sequence motif, i.e. cholesterol binding sequence (CBS; a.a.
