Increased C-reactive protein is associated with corneal nerve loss and painful neuropathic symptoms in Type 2 diabetes mellitus. [PDF]

open access: yesJ Diabetes Investig
Higher circulating C‐reactive protein, a marker of systemic inflammation, is associated with reduced corneal small nerve fiber density in individuals with Type 2 diabetes mellitus. Among participants with diabetic peripheral neuropathy, CRP levels are highest in those reporting positive neuropathic symptoms such as burning, painful cold, or electric ...

C-Reactive Protein: Pathophysiology, Diagnosis, False Test Results and a Novel Diagnostic Algorithm for Clinicians

open access: yesDiseases, 2023
The current literature provides a body of evidence on C-Reactive Protein (CRP) and its potential role in inflammation. However, most pieces of evidence are sparse and controversial.

Targeting C-Reactive Protein in Inflammatory Disease by Preventing Conformational Changes

open access: yesMediators 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.
