Role of C-Reactive Protein at Sites of Inflammation and Infection
Frontiers in Immunology, 2018 C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute inflammatory protein that increases up to 1,000-fold at sites of infection or inflammation. CRP is produced as a homopentameric protein, termed native CRP (nCRP), which can irreversibly dissociate at sites of ...
