Increased susceptibility of serum amyloid A 1.1 to degradation by MMP-1: potential explanation for higher risk of type AA amyloidosis
Rheumatology, 10/20/08
Van der Hilst JCH et al. - Results may explain the higher risk of amyloidosis in patients with a SAA1.1/1.1 genotype vs SAA1.5/1.5 or SAA1.1/1.5 genotype. In addition, the impaired degradation of SAA1.5 by MMP-1 could also explain the higher serum SAA concentrations in persons with a SAA1.5 genotype.
