C-Reactive Protein as a Biomarker of Inflammation and Graft Injury After Kidney and Heart Allo- and Xenotransplantation Into Non-Human Primates.
INTRODUCTION C-reactive protein (CRP) is a widely used inflammatory biomarker. We evaluated CRP alongside tissue injury markers in non-human primate (NHP) models of kidney and heart allo- and xeno-transplantation to assess CRP's sensitivity in detecting graft-specific inflammatory responses (acute rejection), and explo...
