Study of role of serum amyloid A (SAA) as a marker of disease activity in juvenile idiopathic arthritis

Journal of Family Medicine and Primary Care, 2019
Background: Role of serum amyloid A (SAA) protein as a biomarker for the disease activity in juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) has not been explored. This study was done to find its role as marker of disease activity in JIA.

Degradation of serum amyloid A protein by surface-associated enzymes of human blood monocytes

Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1978
Peripheral blood monocytes incubated in a serum-free medium degraded serum amyloid A (SAA) protein along three pathways. Of 20 normal subjects, 8 degraded SAA completely with no detectable intermediates.

Cross-Species Amyloid-like Features Shared by Mammalian and Clostridioides difficile Proteins

Microorganisms
Functional amyloids are widely distributed in bacteria and play important roles in biofilm formation and microbial physiology. However, most currently known bacterial amyloids have been identified through sequence homology to a limited number of ...

Acute phase proteins – As indicators of claw diseases in dairy cattle

Macedonian Veterinary Review, 2019
The serum concentration of certain acute phase proteins significantly increases during various pathological conditions in cattle. The aim of this study was to determine the influence of claw disorders etiology on the concentrations of two major acute ...

Serum amyloid A as a diagnostic marker for histologic chorioamnionitis in preterm premature rupture of membranes: A diagnostic accuracy study

International Journal of Reproductive BioMedicine
Background: Chorioamnionitis is an acute inflammation of the fetal membrane in mothers with preterm premature rupture of the membrane (PPROM). The diagnosis of chorioamnionitis is based on clinical findings; however, laboratory tests may help diagnose ...

Roles of Serum Amyloid A 1 Protein Isoforms in Rheumatoid Arthritis

Engineering, 2022
Secondary amyloid A amyloidosis, a lethal complication, is induced when acute or chronic infection coexists with over-secretion of the serum amyloid A 1 (SAA1) protein and deposition in key internal organs.

Adenoviral expression of murine serum amyloid A proteins to study amyloid fibrillogenesis [PDF]

Biochemical Journal, 1998
Serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins are one of the most inducible acute-phase reactants and are precursors of secondary amyloidosis. In the mouse, SAA1 and SAA2 are induced in approximately equal quantities in response to amyloid induction models. These two isotypes differ in only 9 of 103 amino acid residues; however, only SAA2 is selectively deposited ...

Usefulness of Measuring Serum Amyloid A Concentration in Japanese Black Cattle in Clinical Practice

Veterinary Sciences, 2023
This study investigated the concentration of serum amyloid A (SAA), an acute phase protein, in Japanese Black cattle. Four practical trials were performed to evaluate the transition of SAA and sialic acid before and after dehorning, the relationship ...
