Function (From Uniprot) |
Displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. Can interact with DNA and histones and may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells.

- CRP is pathogenic in type-2 diabetes (T2DN). CRP may promote CD32b- NF-kappaB signaling to mediate renal inflammation; whereas, CRP may enhance renal fibrosis in T2DN via CD32b-Smad3-mTOR signaling. PMID: 27221338
- FcgammaRIIb and FcgammaRIII are involved in the CRP-induced expression of MMPs and TIMP-1 and the CRP-induced phosphorylation of p38, whereas the FcgammaR-independent pathway may regulate the CRP-induced MMP-11 expression and the CRP-induced ERK1/2 phosphorylation. PMID: 28539825
- C-reactive protein may promote acute kidney injury by impairing tubular epithelial cell regeneration via the CD32-Smad3-p27-driven inhibition of the CDK2/cyclin E complex. PMID: 27470679
- These results suggested that CRP/oxidized low density lipoprotein/beta 2-Glycoprotein I complexes may induce lipid accumulation and inflammation in macrophages via the p38/MAPK and NFkappaB signaling pathways. PMID: 27512978
- these data unexpectedly identify CBS as the major recognition site of mCRP and suggest that this motif may be exploited to tune the proinflammatory actions of mCRP. PMID: 26907682
- CRP decreased adiponectin expression and multimerization, while CRP-induced decline in adiponectin might be mediated through the PI3K/Akt pathway. PMID: 26812237

- The interactions of CRP and the BBB are a two-phase process, with increased paracellular permeability at a high dose that enables its entry into the CNS and serves to induce reactive gliosis and impair CNS function. PMID: 23018453
- In mice with photochemically induced thrombosis, acrolein produced at the locus of infarction increased the level of IL-6 and then CRP in plasma. PMID: 23763486
