CRP Enhances the Innate Killing Mechanisms Phagocytosis and ROS Formation in a Conformation and Complement-Dependent Manner

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2021
Phagocytosis and the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in phagocytic leukocytes are an effective killing mechanism of the innate host defense. These cellular processes of innate immunity function in a complex interplay with humoral factors.

Mood Disorder Begins in the Mouth: Periodontitis Mediates Anxiety-Like Behaviors. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
ABSTRACT The previous study elucidated that the C‐reactive protein (CRP)/bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) signaling pathway mediates periodontitis‐associated anxiety‐like behaviors in rats. This molecular crosstalk along the periodontal‐hippocampal axis provides novel insights into the etiology and mechanisms of emotional disorders. However, several

C-reactive protein: a target for therapy to reduce inflammation

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2023
C-reactive protein (CRP) is well-recognized as a sensitive biomarker of inflammation. Association of elevations in plasma/serum CRP level with disease state has received considerable attention, even though CRP is not a specific indicator of a single ...

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.

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).
