Topological localization of monomeric C-reactive protein determines proinflammatory endothelial cell responses. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Biol Chem, 2014
The activation of endothelial cells (ECs) by monomeric C-reactive protein (mCRP) has been implicated in contributing to atherogenesis. However, the potent proinflammatory actions of mCRP on ECs in vitro appear to be incompatible with the atheroprotective effects of mCRP in a mouse model.

CRP Is Transported by Monocytes and Monocyte-Derived Exosomes in the Blood of Patients with Coronary Artery Disease

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2020
The objective of this work was to study the ability of blood cells and their microparticles to transport monomeric and pentameric forms of C-reactive protein (mCRP and pCRP) in the blood of patients with coronary artery disease (CAD).

C-reactive protein haplotypes and dispositional optimism in obese and nonobese elderly subjects [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Chronic low-grade inflammation, characterized by elevated plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP), has been inversely associated with dispositional optimism.

Monomeric C-Reactive Protein Decreases Acetylated LDL Uptake in Human Endothelial Cells [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2009
AbstractBackground: C-reactive protein (CRP) is a risk marker for cardiovascular disease and has been implicated in atherogenesis. In atherosclerotic plaques, it colocalizes with oxidized LDL (oxLDL) and promotes oxLDL uptake by macrophages, suggesting an important cross-talk between CRP and lipid processing.

The Multiple Faces of C-Reactive Protein—Physiological and Pathophysiological Implications in Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesMolecules, 2019
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an intriguing protein which plays a variety of roles in either physiological or pathophysiological states. For years it has been regarded merely as a useful biomarker of infection, tissue injury and inflammation, and it was ...

Functional activities of C-reactive protein on neutrophils [PDF]

open access: yes
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a member of the pentraxin family which opsonises S. pneumoniae through its binding to phosphorylcholine. In addition, CRP binds to Fcγ receptors: FcγRI with high affinity and, probably, FcγRIIA with lower affinity.

APOE polymorphism and its effect on plasma C-reactive protein levels in a large general population sample [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The literature on association between apolipoprotein E (APOE) gene variations and plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) remains inconsistent, mainly due to low statistical power of previous studies.

Fueling the flames of colon cancer – does CRP play a direct pro-inflammatory role?

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
BackgroundSystemic inflammation, diagnostically ascribed by measuring serum levels of the acute phase reactant C-reactive protein (CRP), has consistently been correlated with poor outcomes across cancer types.
