The SAA proteins are a family of apolipoproteins that are associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL). Four SAA isoforms have been currently characterized in mice; SAA1 shares 91%, 70%, and 54% sequence identify with mouse SAA2, SAA3, and SAA4, respectively. SAA1 and SAA2 are expressed primarily by the liver and are regulated by the cytokines IL-1, IL-6 and TNF-?, and the levels can increase as much as 1000 fold during inflammation. SAA1 is also associated with certain cancers, atherosclerosis, and rheumatoid arthritis. SAA1 is a precursor of amyloid A, fibril deposits of which may result in inflammatory amyloidosis.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eProperties and Storage Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nShipped at conditions-Blue Ice, Appropriate short-term storage conditions-+4°C, Appropriate long-term storage conditions-+4°C, Storage information-+4°C\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSupplementary Information:\u003cbr\u003e\nThis supplementary information is collated from multiple sources and compiled automatically.\u003cbr\u003e\nSerum Amyloid A (SAA) is an important acute-phase protein with a mass of approximately 12 kDa. It plays a role in inflammation and is present in the serum. SAA is an apolipoprotein that associates with high-density lipoprotein (HDL) during inflammatory states. The protein is expressed mainly in the liver and circulating SAA levels greatly increase during inflammatory responses marking it as an important marker for inflammation.\u003cbr\u003e\nBiological function summary\u003cbr\u003e\nSAA contributes to the body's immune response to injury by recruiting immune cells and facilitating the removal of cholesterol. As part of the acute-phase response SAA integrates into HDL displacing other apolipoproteins and altering HDL's function. Increased SAA levels can also modulate prostaglandin synthesis and secretion influencing the inflammatory response. The exact role of SAA in pathways beyond these functions continues to be a subject of research.\u003cbr\u003e\nPathways\u003cbr\u003e\nSAA influences lipid metabolism and inflammatory pathways. It plays a significant role within the acute-phase response pathway which modulates the immune system’s reaction to stress such as infection or injury. Another pathway involves cholesterol metabolism where SAA interacts with apolipoproteins AI and AII altering the composition and function of HDL particles.\u003cbr\u003e\nHigh levels of SAA associate with amyloidosis and chronic inflammatory diseases. In amyloidosis misfolded SAA proteins deposit as amyloid fibrils in tissues leading to organ dysfunction. In dogs and other species SAA is used as a biomarker to monitor inflammatory diseases. Its connection with C-reactive protein further emphasizes its role in inflammatory processes. Research continues to explore how modulating SAA levels may impact disease progression and treatment.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Abcam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46843574321321,"sku":"ab215090","price":0.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/iright.com\/ar\/products\/abcam-ab215090","provider":"Iright","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
