CRP level is 1000 times higher in a cytokine-mediated response due to tissue injury, infection and inflammation. Therefore the CRP rate in serum is common use to detect the activity of a disease. | CRP level is 1000 times higher in a cytokine-mediated response due to tissue injury, infection and inflammation.
