Severity of mastitis symptoms as a predictor of C-reactive protein in milk and blood during lactation [PDF]
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the presence of C-reactive protein (CRP) in breast milk and any relationship between changes in CRP in breast milk and blood, and the severity of systemic and breast symptoms experienced during mastitis. METHODS: Mothers (n = 26)

Evaluating the Quality of Research into a Single Prognostic Biomarker: A Systematic Review and Meta-analysis of 83 Studies of C-Reactive Protein in Stable Coronary Artery Disease [PDF]
Background: Systematic evaluations of the quality of research on a single prognostic biomarker are rare. We sought to evaluate the quality of prognostic research evidence for the association of C-reactive protein (CRP) with fatal and nonfatal events ...

The effect of interleukin-1 receptor antagonist therapy on markers of inflammation in non-ST elevation acute coronary syndromes:the MRC-ILA Heart Study [PDF]
AIMS: Acute coronary syndromes (ACSs) are driven by inflammation within coronary plaque. Interleukin-1 (IL-1) has an established role in atherogenesis and the vessel-response to injury. ACS patients have raised serum markers of inflammation.

Targeting C-Reactive Protein in Inflammatory Disease by Preventing Conformational Changes
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentraxin that has long been employed as a marker of inflammation in clinical practice. Recent findings brought up the idea of CRP to be not only a systemic marker but also a mediator of inflammation.

Mechanisms of evolutionary optimized complex folding reactions [PDF]
The mechanisms and speed limits of evolutionary optimized complex folding reactions were investigated in this study. The two viral model proteins, foldon and SFVP, have evolved under selective pressure for fast and efficient folding and association.

Structure and non-reactive dynamics of the dimeric catalytic domain of human carbonic anhydrase IX
Despite the availability of high resolution crystal structure of the catalytic domain of human carbonic anhydrase IX (denoted as HCA IX-c), its solution structure and functional dynamics are mostly unknown.
