C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is an inflammatory marker often checked in blood test to determine level of inflammation in the body. C-Reactive Protein that can be used to predict heart attack risk.  It is produced by the Liver and released in response to acute injury, Bacterial & Viral Infection or other causes of Inflammation that causes increase of CRP. The body releases CRP into the bloodstream when Blood Vessels leading to the Heart are damaged, a common result of Atherosclerosis.  C-Reactive Protein level indicates the degree of Inflammation occurring in the lining of the Arteries. C-Reactive Protein is a biomarker of abnormal Blood Clotting (its presence is indicative of destabilized atherosclerotic plaque that can cause abnormal Blood Clotting). C-Reactive Protein is a biomarker of future Heart Attack risk (its presence is indicative of destabilized atherosclerotic plaque that can cause Heart Attacks).  People with high levels of C-Reactive Protein are three times more likely to die from a future Heart Attack than people with low levels of C-Reactive Protein. The Brains of Alzheimer’s Disease patients contain higher than normal levels of C-Reactive Protein and also patients with Dementia have  higher than normal levels of C-Reactive Protein in there brain.

Toxic Effects of C-Reactive Protein

 Biomarker of Inflammation
–
Biomarker of future Hypertension risk
– biomarker of future Heart Attack
– biomarker of Dilated Cardiomyopathy
–
Biomarker of future Stroke
–
Biomarker of abnormal Blood Clotting
–
biomarker of Atherosclerosis
–
May be a biomarker of (acute) Pancreatitis
–
May be a biomarker of future risk of Cataracts
–
May be a biomarker forAge-Related Macular Degeneration (ARMD)
–  May be a biomarker for Cancer (Colon and Prostate)

–
Biomarker of Crohn’s Disease
– May be a biomarker of Rheumatic Fever
–
May be a biomarker of Rheumatoid Arthritis
–
May be a biomarker of Fractures
