Serum concentrations of C-reactive protein (CRP) in lean and overweight dogs
Methods 28 adult male intact Labrador Retrievers, reported to be healthy by their owners, were included. 12 dogs were categorized as lean (body condition score, BCS, ≤5) and 16 as overweight (BCS ≥6). Physical examination and laboratory testing were performed. Serum CRP concentrations were measured with a canine-specific high-sensitivity CRP assay (Gentian hsCRP). Mann Whitney U test (⍺=0.05) w...
متن کاملEffects of prolonged swimming and football training programs on the C-reactive protein (CRP), homocysteine and fibrinogen concentrations in the serum of young boys
Introduction: It appears that some risk factors for coronary heart diseases (CHD) initiate their influence in the childhood period and their clinical complications start to take effect in adulthood. It is possible that adolescent active or sedentary boys, have other inflammatory silent risk factors of CHD, in addition to routine risk factors such as lipid profile. However, the scientific dat...
متن کاملDetermination of serum C-reactive protein (CRP) in healthy beagle dogs of various ages and pregnant beagle dogs.
Serum C-reactive protein (CRP) concentrations in healthy beagle dogs of various ages and in pregnant beagles were measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Serum CRP concentrations were 1.5-16.0 microg/ml (mean 7.9 +/- 3.4 microg/ml) in male, and 1.8-18.9 microg/ml (mean 8.3 +/- 4.0 microg/ml) in female dogs. No significant sex-related differences were observed in the values. Furth...
متن کاملSerum C-Reactive Protein (CRP), Target for Therapy or Trouble?
High sensitivity serum C-reactive protein (hs-CRP) has come into clinical use as a marker of risk for cardiovascular disease (CVD). In addition to a role as a marker of disease, CRP has also been implicated in the pathogenesis of CVD. Specific small-molecule inhibitors of CRP have recently been developed with the intent of mitigating cardiac damage during acute myocardial infarction. However, t...
متن کاملAssociation of C-reactive protein (CRP) gene polymorphisms, serum CRP levels and cervical cancer prognosis.
BACKGROUND C-reactive protein (CRP) is the prototypical biomarker of inflammation. Genetic variations within the CRP gene have been shown to be associated with alterations of CRP expression and prognosis in cancer patients. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the association between four polymorphisms of the CRP gene, CRP serum levels, clinicopathological parameters of cervical cancer and...
