Serum CRP values are routinely measured to detect or monitor many human diseases and minor elevations of C~reactive protein are predictive of cardiovascular events in patients with coronary heart disease. CRP promotes host defense, is an efficient activator of the classical C cascade, and shown to be opsonic.The opsonic and C activation activities are responsible for the nonspecific host defense activities providing protection in the preimmune stage of acute infections.
