However, bacterial contamination of BALF is frequent, intracellular bacteria are not always visualized on BALF cytology, and BC results may not be related to antimicrobial requirements. Based on local expression of C-reactive protein (CRP) by alveolar macrophages, we aimed to evaluate whether CRP was detectable in canine BALF, and to determine whether BALF-CRP detection could assist in differentiating bBP from non-bacterial bronchopneumopathy (nbBP) in dogs. We used surplus BALF material collected from 24 dogs. Final diagnosis of bBP (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20093) versus nbBP (\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">n<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u200921) was retrospectively achieved by 2 board-certified internists. CRP was measured in BALF using an Idexx Catalyst One analyzer. Agreement between a detectable BALF-CRP (\u22651\u2009mg\/L) and a diagnosis of bBP was assessed using the Cohen kappa coefficient. Five dogs had detectable BALF-CRP, including 3 dogs with bBP and 2 dogs with nbBP. Substantial agreement (\u03ba\u2009=\u20090.7) was found between BALF-CRP and the final diagnosis. BALF-CRP had a test sensitivity of 100% (95% CI [29, 100]) and a specificity of 90% (95% CI [69, 98]) for bBP. Only a fair and not significant correlation was found between plasma CRP and BALF-CRP concentration (rho\u2009=\u20090.3;\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">p<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2009=\u20090.3). Our results suggest that CRP is detectable in canine BALF. The BALF-CRP may be a potential in-house biomarker for bBP in dogs, without being influenced by the plasma CRP concentration.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/10406387261432645","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,21]],"date-time":"2026-03-21T09:19:08Z","timestamp":1774084748000},"page":"963-971","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":0,"title":["C-reactive protein in bronchoalveolar lavage fluid as a potential biomarker of bacterial bronchopneumonia in dogs"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"38","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0008-3469-756X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tiffany","family":"Giampaolo","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement des Animaux de Compagnie de Loisir et de Sport, VetAgro Sup, Campus V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire de Lyon, Universit\u00e9 de Lyon, Marcy-L\u2019Etoile, France;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"M\u00e9lanie","family":"Garcia-Liotard","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire Evolia, L\u2019Isle-Adam, France;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Jean-Luc","family":"Cador\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement des Animaux de Compagnie de Loisir et de Sport, VetAgro Sup, Campus V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire de Lyon, Universit\u00e9 de Lyon, Marcy-L\u2019Etoile, France;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-6360-515X","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emile","family":"Krafft","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"D\u00e9partement des Animaux de Compagnie de Loisir et de Sport, VetAgro Sup, Campus V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire de Lyon, Universit\u00e9 de Lyon, Marcy-L\u2019Etoile, France;"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7646-0677","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mario","family":"Cervone","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique V\u00e9t\u00e9rinaire Sevetys Crozatier, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,3,21]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1017\/ash.2022.323"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jvim.14366"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.tvjl.2017.12.014"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/jvim.16091"},{"key":"e_1_3_3_6_2","first-page":"161","article-title":"Comparison of serum amyloid A and C-reactive protein as diagnostic markers of systemic inflammation in dogs","volume":"55","author":"Christensen MB","year":"2014","unstructured":"Christensen MB, et al.
