Abstract
⺠Lipid free SAA, but not apoA-I or apoA-II, induce G-CSF in vitro. ⺠G-CSF secretion by lipid free SAA requires TLR2. ⺠Lipid free SAA, but not HDL-associated SAA induces cytokine production in vitro. ⺠Overexpression of SAA in SAA-deficient mice does not induce G-CSF. ⺠SAA-containing AP HDL can protect against LPS-induced inflammation.
