Elevated C-reactive protein in the diagnosis, prognosis, and cause of cancer
The aim of this review is to summarize present evidence of an association between circulating levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and cancer risk, and to evaluate whether elevated circulating CRP levels cause cancer.
Additionally, the review provides background information on the acute-phase response, chronic inflammation, the molecular biology, function and measurement of CRP, circulating levels of CRP in health and disease, the principle of Mendelian randomization, the association between circulating levels of CRP and cancer prognosis, and cancer biomarkers.
Crp in metastatic cancer
In the Copenhagen General Population Study of approximately 63,500 individuals, the distribution of circulating levels of CRP was markedly skewed to the right with 97% of the participants having CRP levels<10 mg/L. The median plasma CRP concentration was 1.53 mg/L (IQR, 1.14-2.51) and 34% of the participants had circulating CRP levels of ≥2 mg/L.
Epidemiologic studies suggest that in patients with several types of solid cancers, elevated circu
