Abstract

The serum amyloid A (SAA) proteins can be detected in the high density lipoprotein (HDL) fraction of plasma with in a few hours after an organism has sustained injury (1-4). The amount and N duration of SAA production depend upon the type of injury and its magnitude (2-6). Apo SAA proteins are cleared much more rapidly than other lipoproteins, with halflives of less than 2 hours (5). During homeostasis there is minimal, if any, SAA synthesis (2,4,7).KeywordsSerum AmyloidBacterial Cell Wall ComponentSaline PretreatmentDexamethasone PhosphateAcute Phase Serum ProteinThese keywords were added by machine and not by the authors.
