Epidemiological data positively correlate plasma serum amyloid A (SAA) levels with
cardiovascular disease severity and mortality. Studies by several investigators have …

Aim: The mechanism through which SAA contributes to the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis
remains unclear. The objective of this study was therefore to determine whether SAA plays a …

Objective—Rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), a major cause of death in the aged
population, is characterized by vascular inflammation and matrix degradation. Serum …

The acute-phase protein serum amyloid A (SAA) is elevated during inflammation and may
be deposited in atheroma where it promotes atherosclerosis. We investigated the …

Background Atherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder, and several studies have
demonstrated a positive association between plasma serum amyloid A (SAA) levels and …

Objective—Although elevated plasma concentrations of serum amyloid A (SAA) are
associated strongly with increased risk for atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease in …

Although serum amyloid A (SAA) is an excellent marker for coronary artery disease, its direct
effect on atherogenesis in vivo is obscure. In this study we investigated the direct effect of …

Inflammation is considered to be the driving force leading to atherogenic and atherosclerotic
mechanisms. Increased levels of SAA predict the risk of coronary artery disease and even …
