Acute phase proteins with special reference to C-reactive protein and related proteins (pentaxins) and serum amyloid A protein.

TL;DR: Regardless of its physiological or pathophysiological functions, the assay of serum CRP is a valuable aid to clinical management in a number of different situations and in different diseases provided results are interpreted in the light of full clinical information.

Noncellular nonspecific defence mechanisms of fish

TL;DR: Fish tissues and body fluids contain naturally occurring proteins or glycoproteins of non-immunoglobulin (Ig) nature that react with a diverse array of environmental antigens and may confer an undefined degree of natural immunity to fish.

The Induction of Meningeal Inflammation by Components of the Pneumococcal Cell Wall

TL;DR: Generation of free cell wall components in cerebrospinal fluid as, for example, during treatment with antibiotics that are bacteriolytic as well as bactericidal, could contribute to increased inflammation in the subarachnoid space.
