Excerpt

Acute Serum Amyloid A (A-SAA) is an acute phase protein strongly expressed in rheumatoid arthritis (RA) synovial tissue (ST) critically involved in regulating cell migration and angiogenesis. These processes are dependent on downstream interactions between extracellular matrix and cytoskeletal components. Additionally the Notch signalling pathway has been show to regulate endothelial cell (EC) morphogenesis and is critically involved in vessel formation, branching and morphogenesis. The aim of this study was to examine if A-SAA-induced angiogenesis, cell migration and invasion are mediated by the NOTCH signalling pathways. …
