C-reactive protein (CRP) is the main acute phase reactant in humans. Its production is presumably restricted to the liver but extrahepatic expression by inflamed tissue has not been studied in detail. By real-time PCR and immunohistochemistry we here show that renal cortical tubular epithelial cells
## Abstract The normal physiological roles of the phylogenetically conserved human plasma proteins Cβreactive protein (CRP) and serum amyloid P component (SAP) are not known. Novel drugs targeting their ligand specificities are in clinical development as both proteins have significant pathophysiolo
