Source of Circulating Pentraxin 3 in Septic Shock Patients
Sepsis, which is the leading cause of death in intensive care units (ICU), has been acknowledged as a global health priority by the WHO in 2017. Identification of biomarkers allowing early stratification and recognition of patients at higher risk of ...

Regulation of leukocyte recruitment by the long pentraxin PTX3 [PDF]
Pentraxins are a superfamily of conserved proteins involved in the acute-phase response and innate immunity. Pentraxin 3 (PTX3), a prototypical member of the long pentraxin subfamily, is a key component of the humoral arm of innate immunity that is ...

Essential PTX3 Biology (not only) for Cardiologists and Cardiac Surgeons
Inflammation has been recognized to form an integral part of the atherosclerotic process. Much consideration has been given lately to the role played in atherogenesis by C-reactive protein (CRP). Although not accepted unequivocally, CRP appears to be not

Plasma Pentraxin 3 Concentrations in Patients with Acute Pancreatitis
Pentraxin 3 (PTX3) belongs to the acute phase proteins; its concentration increases significantly in the early stages of inflammation. In nearly 20% of patients with acute pancreatitis (AP) escalated inflammation leads to the development of severe forms of the disease.

Is Pentraxin-3 a Stronger Marker of Inflammation than C-Reactive Protein in Chronic Kidney Disease?
OBJECTIVE : Pentraxin-3 (PTX-3) is elevated in uremic patients and related with albuminuria and endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to clarify the relationship of PTX-3 with inflammatory markers (hsCRP and IL-6) in patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD)

Pentraxin 3 in acute respiratory distress syndrome: an early marker of severity
OBJECTIVE: Pentraxin 3 is a fluid phase receptor involved in innate immunity. It belongs to the Pentraxins family, as C-reactive protein does. Pentraxin 3 is produced by a variety of tissue cells, whereas only the liver produces C-reactive protein ...

Upregulation of pentraxin-3 in human endothelial cells after lysophosphatidic acid exposure
Objective: The earliest event in atherogenesis appears to be endothelium dysfunction. Lysophosphatidic acid (LPA), one of the major bioactive lipid components of oxidized low-density lipoproteins (oxLDL), can cause the activation of endothelial cells ...
