Expression of serum amyloid A protein in the absence of the acute phase response does not reduce HDL cholesterol or apoA-I levels in human apoA-I transgenic mice
Plasma concentrations of high density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol and its major apolipoprotein (apo)A-I are significantly decreased in inflammatory states. Plasma levels of the serum amyloid A (SAA) protein increase markedly during the acute phase response and are elevated in many chronic inflamma...
