• Background: Serum amyloid A1 (SAA1) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the SAA1 gene. SAA1 is a major acute-phase protein mainly produced by hepatocytes in response to infection, tissue injury and malignancy. When released into blood circulation, SAA1 is present as an apolipoprotein associated with high-density lipoprotein (HDL). SAA1 is a major precursor of amyloid A (AA), the deposit of which leads to inflammatory amyloidosis. Mature SAA1 consists of 104 amino acids with an apparent molecular weight of 12,500. Native SAA1 is a hexamer with each subunit assuming an antiparallel 4-helix bundle structure. SAA1 is highly inducible. Inflammatory cytokines such as IL-1β, IL-6 and TNF-α are major stimulants for hepatocyte expression of the SAA1 gene. Inducible expression of the acute-phase SAA genes involves the transcription factors C/EBP, NF-κB, AP2, SAF, Sp1 and STAT3. SAA1 has been a clinical indicator and reliable biomarker for inflammatory diseases, chronic metabolic disorders and late-stage malignancy.
