CRP and myocardial infarction: The expression of C5b-9 in acute myocardial infarction was then studied by Nijmeijer et al. [45] in autopsy sample of myocardial tissue aiming to evaluate the relation between MAC and C reactive protein (CRP) in infarction (histologically staged as early phase, i.e., 0–12 h, PMN phase, i.e., 12 h–5 days, and chronic phase, i.e., 5–14 days), reinfarction (histologically staged as early phase and PMN phase) and reperfusion.
