Abstract

Osteoarthritis (OA) is a chronic joint disease characterized by articular cartilage degeneration and secondary bone hyperplasia. C‑reactive protein (CRP) is an acute‑phase protein that is widely used as a marker of inflammation. Elevated plasma levels of CRP are commonly observed in patients with OA during the acute phase. Current evidence indicates that CRP dissociating into a monomeric form (mCRP) is the main functional conformation at inflammatory loci. However, it remains unclear whether mCRP is associated with OA and whether mCRP can be used as a biomarker for its pathogenesis. In the present study, the concentration of CRP, mCRP and anti‑mCRP autoantibody were detected by performing ELISA. The levels of plasma CRP, mCRP and anti‑mCRP autoantibody between healthy subjects and patients with OA were compared. The results revealed that plasma mCRP was strongly associated with OA, while mCRP autoantibodies exhibited little correlation with this condition. Additionally, it was identified that the plasma mCRP levels in Kellgren‑Lawrence (KL) grade 4 patients were significantly higher than in those with KL grade 3. Thus, it was revealed in the present study that plasma level of mCRP is associated with OA, which may directly reflect the disease degree of patients. Therefore, mCRP may be a potential indicator that can be used to monitor the disease activity and evaluate the efficiency of OA therapy.
