MeSH Heading: Serum Amyloid A Protein
Tree Number(s): D12.776.049.407.750; D12.776.124.050.725
Unique ID: D000685
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D000685
Scope Note: An ACUTE PHASE REACTION protein present in low concentrations in normal sera, but found at higher concentrations in sera of older persons and in patients with AMYLOIDOSIS. It is the circulating precusor of amyloid A protein, which is found deposited in AA type AMYLOID FIBRILS.
