Serum amyloid A4 is a procoagulant apolipoprotein that it is elevated in venous thrombosis patients
Serum amyloid A4 (SAA4) is an apolipoprotein that is in the SAA family and it is constitutively translated. Previously, acute‐phase SAA1 and SAA2 levels were associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE). We investigated the association of plasma SAA4 with VTE and the role of SAA4 in coagulation. The...

Zusammenfassung: | Serum amyloid A4 (SAA4) is an apolipoprotein that is in the SAA family and it is constitutively translated. Previously, acute‐phase SAA1 and SAA2 levels were associated with venous thromboembolism (VTE).
We investigated the association of plasma SAA4 with VTE and the role of SAA4 in coagulation.
The association of SAA4 with VTE in a case‐control study of adult VTE subjects (N = 113 each group) and the effects of recombinant SAA4 on plasma blood coagulation assays and prothrombin activation initiated by factor Xa were evaluated.
Plasma SAA4 levels in VTE subjects were higher vs. controls (48.1 vs. 38.4 µg/mL; P |
