Cat serum amyloid protein 70 is severe. Cat serum amyloid is high when inflammation occurs, and the cat's plasma concentration will reach more than 25%. Cats with high serum amyloid levels may be caused by enteritis, oral disease, liver disease, tumors, renal failure, feline distemper and other diseases.
The reason for high serum amyloid protein in cats
The cat saa test is actually the serum amyloid a. When the cat tests saa, the more severe the inflammation in the body, the higher the saa index. , after the body's inflammation recovers, the saa index will drop. The cat's saa test is an acute phase protein that is usually produced by the liver. If the cat's body is inflamed during the test, the plasma concentration will increase to more than 25%.
saa is the most sensitive indicator of systemic inflammatory response. When the saa value increases, it will definitely indicate a disease. When the cat’s clinical symptoms are unclear, saa can detect inflammation throughout the cat’s body. Repeated cat SAA testing after surgery can detect the surgical effect, postoperative recovery status, and whether there is postoperative infection.
The concentration of serum amyloid A is a sensitive indicator reflecting early inflammation in infectious diseases, and is helpful in diagnosing inflammation, evaluating its activity, monitoring its activity and treatment. Therefore, abnormal serum amyloid A may be caused by inflammation.
