Aggregation of Mouse Serum Amyloid A Protein Was Promoted by Amyloid-Enhancing Factors with the More Genetically Homologous Serum Amyloid A. [PDF]
Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis is a condition in which amyloid fibrils characterized by a linear morphology and a cross-β structure accumulate and are deposited extracellularly in organs, resulting in chronic inflammatory diseases and infections. The incidence of AA amyloidosis is high in humans and several animal species.

Presence of a SARS-CoV-2 Protein Enhances Amyloid Formation of Serum Amyloid A [PDF]
ABSTRACTA marker for the severeness and disease progress of COVID-19 is overexpression of serum amyloid A (SAA) to levels that in other diseases are associated with a risk for SAA amyloidosis. In order to understand whether SAA amyloidosis could also be a long-term risk of SARS-COV-2 infections we have used long all-atom molecular dynamic simulations ...

Changes in the Serum Protein Electrophoresis Profile in Dogs With Pyometra
Serum proteins are involved in the regulation of inflammation, and therefore, serum protein profiling provides important insights in diverse inflammatory reactions.

AA amyloid fibrils from diseased tissue are structurally different from in vitro formed SAA fibrils
Systemic AA amyloidosis is a protein misfolding disease caused by the formation of amyloid fibrils from serum amyloid A (SAA) protein. Here, the authors present the cryo-EM structures of AA amyloid fibrils isolated from mouse tissue and in vitro formed ...

Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflammatory Drugs and Ectodomain Shedding of the Amyloid Precursor Protein [PDF]
Background: Epidemiological studies have suggested that long-term use of nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) is associated with a reduced incidence of Alzheimer's disease (AD).

Serum Amyloid A proteins take retinol for a ride [PDF]
Vitamin A plays pleiotropic roles in the immune system. A recent eLife paper by Hooper and colleagues shows that hepatic and intestinal serum amyloid A proteins, which are induced in response to infection, can transport vitamin A metabolites to tissues and thus impact immune responses both locally and systemically.
