Background: C-Reactive Protein/CRP

C Reactive Protein is a major acute phase reactant synthesized primarily in the liver hepatocytes. It is a pentraxin (cyclic pentameric protein) compound of five identical nonglycosylated subunits of 206 amino acids each (m.w. 24 kDa), that are bound noncovalently to form the physiologic CRP molecule (m.w. 117.5 kDa). C Reactive Protein mediates activities associated with preimmune nonspecific host resistance. It is opsonic, an initiator of the classical complement cascade and an activator of monocytes/macrophages. CRP also binds to several nuclear components including chromatin, histones and snRNP, suggesting that it may play a role as a scavenger during cell necrosis. Studies have revealed that among other markers of inflammation, CRP shows the strongest association with cardiovascular events. Many clinical studies demonstrated that coronary mortality among patients with unstable angina and elevated CRP is significantly higher comparing with the patients without elevated CRP. Measurements of C reactive protein (hsCRP) in the patients with ischemic heart disease provide a novel method for detecting individuals at high risk of plaque rupture.

FAQs for C-Reactive Protein/CRP Antibody - BSA Free

Showing  1 - 1 of 1 FAQ Showing All

  • Q: We are looking to purchase some antibodies against c-reactive protein (preferably antibody clones c6 and c2). For our purpose, we are looking for antibodies that are preferably optimized for, or at least have reported use with, human serum samples, because we are wary of the serum matrix effect on the functioning of the antibody. Do you have any recommendations for these requirements?

    A:

    For human c-reactive protein, we currently sell 18 antibodies which recognise the human protein. Of these, NB110-55637 shows a Western blot image using a human serum sample, while NBP1-87183 and NBP1-87184 have Western blot images generated using human plasma. Clone C2 has catalogue number NB100-73033 and clone C6 has catalogue number NB200-442.
