SAA1 and infection: Among the upregulated genes there are genes that belong to infection-associated inflammatory Acute Phase proteins (APPs), such as Serum amyloid A1 (SSA1, FC = 1599) and A2 (SSA2, FC = 49), colony stimulating factor CSF2 (FC = 1316) and CSF3 (FC = 234), as well as Ceruloplasmin (CP; FC = 46.49) (Table 2).
