Human C-Reactive Protein Is Protective against Fatal Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium Infection in Transgenic Mice
C-reactive protein (CRP) is an acute-phase protein with a well-known association with infection and other inflammatory conditions. We have shown that expression of human CRP by CRP transgenic (CRPtg) mice is protective against lethal infection by Streptococcus pneumoniae, an effect likely mediated b...
