Target Information
Sheep serum amyloid A protein (SAA) is a sensitive acute-phase reactant that plays a crucial role in the inflammatory response and immune system of sheep. It is produced mainly in the liver upon stimulation by pro-inflammatory cytokines and is involved in cholesterol transport and as a chemoattractant in inflammatory processes. SAA levels can increase significantly during inflammation, and certain isoforms of SAA can be cleaved into fragments that form amyloid fibrils, leading to amyloidosis. This protein is also implicated in cell-cell communication and feedback in inflammatory, immunologic, and protective pathways, suggesting a critical role in the control of the acute phase response.
