Traumas like Sept. 11 make brains more reactive to fear
According to a new brain study, even people who seemed resilient but were close to the World Trade Center when the twin towers toppled on Sept. 11, 2001, have brains that are more reactive to emotional stimuli than those who were more than 200 miles away. That is the finding of a new Cornell study that excluded people who did not have such mental disorders as post-traumatic stress disorder...Cy5 Post-Labeling Reactive Dye Pack from GE Healthcare, formerly Amersham Biosciences

Mayo Clinic researchers have shown that increased levels of C-reactive protein in the blood are associated with the stiffening of the arteries. This finding could lead to new and improved // public health strategies to prevent heart disease, such as developing drugs that suppress inflammation to improve the health of arteries before full-blown heart disease develops. The Ma...C-reactive Protein (CRP) Levels Could Assess Future Lung Cancer Risk In Smokers
New research published in the American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine says that measuring the levels of f C-reactive protein (CRP) in the blood could// help detect abnormal lesions like cancer in the airways of smokers. CRP is a marker of inflammation and measuring the blood levels of this protein could help doctors identify people at risk for developing lesions that co...C-Reactive Protein Induces Hypertension
Researchers at UT Southwestern Medical Center have found that C-Reactive Protein plays a direct role// in inducing hypertension. "We have discovered that C-Reactive Protein (CRP) is not merely a marker of the risk of hypertension, it actually induces hypertension," said Dr. Wanpen Vongpatanasin, associate professor of internal medicine and lead author of the study appearing in the Feb...C -reactive Protein is the Marker for Cardiovascular Disease
According to a new study of children ages 5 to 7,C-reactive protein, a marker of inflammation that is often used to detect cardiovascular disease, may also indicate cognitive impairment in children with obstructive sleep apnea. Children with OSA have increased levels of hsCRP [high-sensitivty C-reactive protein] and also exhibit decreased cognitive performances, said lead researcher...RCRP high sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (hsCRP)
Description:The High Sensitivity C-Reactive Protein (RCRP) Flex reagent cartridge is an in vitro diagnostic test intended for the quantitative determination of CRP in serum and plasma. This assay is not available for use on the Dimension ES...C-Reactive Protein (CRP) Assay
