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

The High-Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein-Albumin-Lymphocyte Index Is a Prognostic Marker for All-Cause and Cardiovascular Mortality in Patients With ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction. [PDF]
Catheter Cardiovasc IntervABSTRACT Background Inflammation and immune dysfunction may worsen the prognosis of patients with ST‐segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI). Aims This study aimed to assess whether the high‐sensitivity C‐reactive protein–albumin–lymphocyte index (hsCALLYI) could be used to predict the prognosis of STEMI patients who received emergency ...

Targeting C-Reactive Protein in Inflammatory Disease by Preventing Conformational Changes
Mediators of Inflammation, 2015 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.
