Association of monomeric C-Reactive Protein (m-CRP) with hypothalamic neurons after CRP hippo-campal administration in a model of dementia.

open access: yesEuropean review for medical and pharmacological sciences, 2022
The ensuing ischemia due to the disruption of blood supply to the brain is one of the most common causes of stroke. Evidence suggests a clear association of the ischemic injury with vascular dementia and Alzheimer's disease (AD). In response to the brain ischemia, a cascade reaction starts leading to neuronal damage due to oxidative stress and other ...

Complement factor H binding of monomeric C-reactive protein downregulates proinflammatory activity and is impaired with at risk polymorphic CFH variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Inflammation and immune-mediated processes are pivotal to the pathogenic progression of age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Although plasma levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) have been shown to be associated with an increased risk for AMD, the ...

Extracellular vesicles opsonized by monomeric C-reactive protein (CRP) are accessible as autoantigens in patients with systemic lupus erythematosus and associate with autoantibodies against CRP

open access: yesJournal of Autoimmunity, 2023
The pentraxin C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentameric protein now known to be able to undergo dissociation into a monomeric, modified isoform, referred to as mCRP. In carefully assessing the bioactivities of each isoform, mCRP has strong pro-inflammatory activities while pCRP has mild anti-inflammatory activities. Systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) is

Serum CRP interacts with SPARC and regulate immune response in severe cases of COVID-19 infection

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) has been found elevated during COVID-19 infection, and associated with systematic inflammation as well as a poor clinical outcome.

A novel phosphocholine‐mimetic inhibits a pro‐inflammatory conformational change in C‐reactive protein

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2022
C‐reactive protein (CRP) is an early‐stage acute phase protein and highly upregulated in response to inflammatory reactions. We recently identified a novel mechanism that leads to a conformational change from the native, functionally relatively inert ...

In vitro generation and bioactivity evaluation of C-reactive protein intermediate. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2018
The conformational conversion of pentameric C-reactive protein (pCRP) to monomeric CRP (mCRP) has been shown to play important roles in the action of CRP in inflammation regulation.

Factor H-Related Protein 5 Interacts with Pentraxin 3 and the Extracellular Matrix and Modulates Complement Activation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The physiological roles of the factor H (FH)-related proteins are controversial and poorly understood. Based on genetic studies, FH-related protein 5 (CFHR5) is implicated in glomerular diseases, such as atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome, dense deposit

C-Reactive Protein in Atherosclerosis—More than a Biomarker, but not Just a Culprit

open access: yesReviews in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a pentraxin that is mainly synthesized in the liver in response to inflammatory cytokines. It exists in two functionally and structurally distinct isoforms.

Extracellular vesicles are associated with C-reactive protein in sepsis

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
There is increasing evidence that C-reactive protein (CRP) can mediate inflammatory reactions following the transformation of functionally inert pentameric CRP (pCRP) into its structural isoform pCRP* and into monomeric CRP (mCRP).
