C-reactive protein (CRP) is known to dissociate to its monomeric subunits (mCRP) in vivo. Furthermore, hyperglycaemia associated with diabetes mellitus (DM) results in glycation of serum proteins to a various extent based on their half-life and glyca...

Veillonella parvula is a Gram-negative bacterium known to be an abundant commensal coloniser of the human gut and mouth; it is linked to progression of childhood immune system but has also been found to be an opportunistic pathogen. Lipopolysaccharid... Read More about The structure of Lipid A and composition of the oligosaccharides of the lipopolysaccharides of the bacterial species: Veillonella parvula.
