Serum Amyloid A Protein (SAA) in Colorectal Carcinoma
The changes in serum levels of serum amyloid A protein were studied in 67 patients suffering from colorectal carcinoma and compared to three other major acute phase proteins: C-reactive protein, α1-antichymotrypsin and α1-acid glycoprotein. Although the presence of colorectal carcinoma caused an inc...

Zusammenfassung: | The changes in serum levels of serum amyloid A protein were studied in 67 patients suffering from colorectal carcinoma and compared to three other major acute phase proteins: C-reactive protein, α1-antichymotrypsin and α1-acid glycoprotein. Although the presence of colorectal carcinoma caused an increase in serum levels of all the acute phase reactants studied, serum amyloid A protein showed the most powerful reaction in pre-operative disease stage, with the mean value of 330 mg/l (range 7–2506 mg/l) as compared to the normal values of |
