Pentraxins CRP-I and CRP-II are post-translationally deiminated and differ in tissue specificity in cod (Gadus morhua L.) ontogeny [PDF]
Pentraxins are fluid phase pattern recognition molecules that form an important part of the innate immune defence and are conserved between fish and human.

Biochemical properties of Paracoccus denitrificans FnrP:Reactions with molecular oxygen and nitric oxide [PDF]
In Paracoccus denitrificans, three CRP/FNR family regulatory proteins, NarR, NnrR and FnrP, control the switch between aerobic and anaerobic (denitrification) respiration.

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.

C-reactive protein, immunothrombosis and venous thromboembolism
C-reactive protein (CRP) is a member of the highly conserved pentraxin superfamily of proteins and is often used in clinical practice as a marker of infection and inflammation.

Monomeric C‐reactive protein induces the cellular pathology of Alzheimer's disease
Introduction Human study shows that elevated C‐reactive protein (CRP) in blood impacts apolipoprotein E (APOE) ε4, but not APOE ε3 or APOE ε2, genotype to increase the risk of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

mCRP as a Biomarker of Adult-Onset Still’s Disease: Quantification of mCRP by ELISA
BackgroundC-reactive protein (CRP) is a dynamic protein that undergoes conformational changes between circulating native pentameric CRP (pCRP), pentameric symmetrical forms (pCRP*) and monomeric (or modified) CRP (mCRP) forms.

Role of osteoprotegerin/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B/receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B ligand axis in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease [PDF]
Concomitantly with the increase in the prevalences of overweight/obesity, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) has worldwide become the main cause of chronic liver disease in both adults and children.

Inflammation is pivotal in atherosclerosis. Minor C-reactive protein (CRP) response reflects low-grade vascular inflammation and the high-sensitivity CRP test with levels > or = 3.0 mg/l predicts coronary vascular events and survival in angina pectoris as well as in healthy subjects. We and others recently reported autoantibodies against monomeric CRP (
