“…Because it has been shown that SAA can also exist in vivo in lipid-free form, it is plausible that at high SAA concentrations (up to 1-2 mg/ml (4)) present during inflammation, lipid-free SAA might exist in an oligomeric non-HDL binding state for functional reasons (34). This reasoning is consistent with a study showing that after an acute phase reaction in mice, SAA was found to be circulating free in serum in addition to being HDL-bound (35,36). Thus, the structural malleability of SAA1.1 and SAA2.2 we observed in vitro may reflect the in vivo properties of SAA proteins to allow the regulation of their many putative functions related to cholesterol metabolism and the inflammatory responses (34).…”

“…Normally, the N-terminal amyloidogenic portion of SAA is bound to high-density lipoprotein (HDL), and thus protected from interaction with AA fibrils (36). However, when the serum concentration of this amyloidogenic protein is greatly increased as a result of an inflammatory stimulus, not all SAA molecules are bound to HDL (37), and thus would be free to interact with AA-derived fibril seeds. As a consequence of this interaction, we posit that SAA undergoes a conformational change leading to the formation of oligomeric intermediates, protofibrils, and ever-expanding amyloid deposits.…”

“…One proposed mechanism is that lipid-free SAA secreted by hepatocytes associates with existing spherical HDL particles through a remodeling process that may involve the displacement of apoA-I ( 10, 30, 31 ). However, induction of an AP response in apoA-I-defi cient mice leads to the formation of large, spherical HDL particles in which >90% of the protein is SAA, suggesting that SAA is capable of sequestering lipid to form HDL in the absence of apoA-I and other apolipoproteins ( 30,31 ). On the other hand, adenoviral vectormediated expression of SAA in apoA-I-defi cient mice in the absence of infl ammation results in circulating SAA that is mostly in a lipid-poor form, suggesting that components of the AP response are required for the biogenesis of SAA-rich HDL in the absence of apoA-I ( 32 ).…”
