Interpolated concentrations of native CRP in human serum and plasma samples.

The concentrations of CRP were measured in duplicates, interpolated from the CRP standard curves and corrected for sample dilution. Undiluted samples are as follows : serum 1 : 1000, plasma (citrate) 1 : 2000, plasma (EDTA) 1 : 1000, plasma (heparin) 1 : 1000. The interpolated dilution factor corrected values are plotted (mean +/- SD, n=2). The mean CRP concentration was determined to be 1025.5 ng/mL in serum, 1676.5 ng/mL in plasma (citrate) and 668.3 ng/mL in plasma (EDTA), and, 1062.8 ng/mL in plasma (heparin).

Product details

C-Reactive Protein (CRP) in vitro CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA (Enzyme-Linked Immunosorbent Assay) kit is designed for the quantitative measurement of C-Reactive Protein (CRP) protein in human serum, plasma, and cell culture supernatants.

This CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA kit has been optimized for Molecular Devices Microplate Readers. Click here for a list of recommended Microplate Readers.
If using a Molecular Devices' plate reader supported by SoftMax® Pro software, a preconfigured protocol for these CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA Kits is available with all the protocol and analysis settings at www.softmaxpro.org.

The CatchPoint SimpleStep ELISA employs an affinity tag labeled capture antibody and a reporter conjugated detector antibody which immunocapture the sample analyte in solution. This entire complex (capture antibody/analyte/detector antibody) is in turn immobilized via immunoaffinity of an anti-tag antibody coating the well. To perform the assay, samples or standards are added to the wells, followed by the antibody mix. After incubation, the wells are washed to remove unbound material. CatchPoint HRP Development Solution containing the Stoplight Red Substrate is added. During incubation, the substrate is catalyzed by HRP generating a fluorescent product. Signal is generated proportionally to the amount of bound analyte and the intensity is measured in a fluorescence plater reader at 530/570/590 nm Excitation/Cutoff/Emission.

CRP displays several functions associated with host defense: it promotes agglutination, bacterial capsular swelling, phagocytosis and complement fixation through its calcium-dependent binding to phosphorylcholine. CRP can interact with DNA and histones and it may scavenge nuclear material released from damaged circulating cells. CRP is secreted; it forms a homopentamer pentaxin (or pentraxin) which have a discoid arrangement of 5 non-covalently bound subunits. CRP binds 2 calcium ions per subunit. The concentration of CRP in plasma increases greatly during acute phase response to tissue injury, infection or other inflammatory stimuli. It is induced by IL1/interleukin-1 and IL6//interleukin-6.

Supplementary information

C-reactive protein (CRP) also known as CRP protein is an acute-phase protein with a molecular mass of approximately 25 kDa. It is primarily synthesized in the liver in response to cytokines. This protein appears in the blood where it binds to phosphocholine expressed on the surface of dead or dying cells. CRP is often used as a biomarker for inflammation in the body and its levels in human and canine (anti CRP used) blood samples are measured using assays like the CRP ELISA test or CRP ELISA kit.
Biological function summary

CRP plays a significant role in the innate immune system by recognizing foreign pathogens and damaged cells. It does not form part of a larger complex but itself can bind to specific ligands initiating the complement cascade. This activation enhances phagocytosis by macrophages contributing to the clearance of necrotic and apoptotic cells. The CRP protein therefore acts as a fast responder in the presence of inflammation making it a useful indicator for monitoring inflammatory diseases.

Pathways

CRP operates predominantly within the acute-phase response pathway. Its production is upregulated by cytokines such as IL-6 which connects it to inflammation-signaling pathways. CRP also interacts with the complement system bridging innate and adaptive immunity. Besides CRP could indirectly influence pathways involving other inflammatory proteins like serum amyloid A and haptoglobin creating a network of responses important for managing inflammation.

Elevated CRP levels are commonly associated with cardiovascular diseases and rheumatoid arthritis. In cardiovascular diseases CRP acts as a marker for atherosclerosis where the protein levels correlate with disease severity. It connects with other proteins involved in inflammatory processes such as fibrinogen to contribute to disease pathology. In rheumatoid arthritis CRP provides insights into disease activity helping in the assessment of treatment responses.
