C-reactive protein (CRP) is a plasma protein, an accurate phase protein produced by the liver and by adiposities. CRP is used mainly as a marker of inflammation. Measuring and charting C-reactive protein values can prove useful in determining disease progress or the effectiveness of treatments. in blood. CRP is used mainly as a marker of inflammation. Measuring and charting C-reactive protein values can prove useful in determining disease progress or the effectiveness of treatments. Viral infection tend to give a lower CRP level than bacterial infection. CRP is a general marker for inflammation and infection, so it can be used as a very rough proxy for heart disease risk. The role of inflammation in cancer is not well known. Some organs of the body show greater risk of cancer when they are chronically inflamed.Synonyms: C Reactive Protein, PTX1, Pentraxin-related
